What is the name of your state? Ohio
But she resides in Florida. Due to circumstances I cant control my brother and her mother signed their rights to her away as of March 17,2008. She is now in States custody and has been placed in a foster home. I have contacted the Children Services Dept in Fort Myers and actually spoke to the case manager. She took vital information and as I understood it, since I am her aunt, I would have some sort of priority in the adoption process. I already have children and they would like to have her here as well. I am not rich by any means but do know I can provide for her. The case manager did say she would get right back with me. I have heard nothing and it has been a week. I have left several messages and still nothing even to say we are pending research on the matter. So my question. When it comes to adopting within the family tree, Is there priority? Is there a reason they would not want to put the child with me? I am married and have been for 16 years. I am the oldest of my siblings and I live in a total diffrent state then my siblings. Is there anything I can do to atleast get an answer from The Case Manager? She resides in Fort Myers Florida . I reside in Chillicothe Ohio. If anyone can help I would be sooo insanlely happy. HugsWhat is the name of your state?
