Aidan & Sophie Want to be Adopted

Donation protected
My name is Sharon Fillner. I am starting this account for my son and daughter-in-law, Mike and Julie Fillner. Mike and Julie have been married for 13 years and have been trying to have a baby the entire time.  They have done fertility treatments, and Julie has had surgeries and taken assorted hormones and other meds to no avail. They could not afford the high price of private adoption. They have watched all 3 of Mike's younger sisters have babies and still no babies for them.  This spring the opportunity to foster and possibly adopt twins, a boy and a girl. Mike and Julie brought them home when they were 5 1/2 months old.  They immediately fell in love with these precious babies.  They are so happy to finally have babies in their home.  This is a CPS case where the twins were removed from their biological mother, the case has been prodding along with the named father dragging his feet giving up the babies, even though he has a long record and no way to support them.  Recently they found out the the named father was in fact, not the biological father. Suddenly the proces has sped up and there is a hearing on November 5th.  This money is for a lawyer for them and they were not prepared for this expense so quick.  They have spent so much money just buying cribs, strollers, high chairs etc. X2, that they have depleted their funds. They thought this was going to go on until May. Please help Aidan & Sophie stay  with the people they consider Mommy & Daddy.   Their little faces light up when Mike or Julie walk into the room. My husband and I have also fallen in love with these precious babies too. In fact the entire families on both sides have fallen in love with these babies too. Please help if you can so these babies can stay where they are. Thank you in advance.
