I have done all I can do at the moment. I have contacted the two known agencies that work in the region and sent them what information I have on my son's brother.
I have received several questions on my different postings regarding why on earth I would be in contact with my child's Russian family.
I will post about that at another time. If you want you can read some archived posts that may have to do with it. In the meantime, here are some articles re:
Searching for Birthfamilies Internationally: "Searching for Birthfamilies Internationally"
from Adoptive Families Magazine .
I had contacted my searcher yesterday who not only remembered me but was quite willing to help if need be. I would not have known about "little brother" if not for my searcher. I would not have found three of his sisters living in America, also adopted and ecstatic in the knowledge their baby brother was happy and loved.
I have been surrounded by children and must go. Enjoy your day my friends.

Sibling in Orphanage
Got a call today from my son's sisters on the east coast. Babushka in Russia has written. Little brother has been placed in a baby home.
I have called the two agencies that work in the region. I have sent them both all the information I have. Has anyone out there heard of an identified adoption in Russia going through? I have not heard from the Russian government agencies re: the brother even though I was told they would contact me re: siblings.
The girls called me as soon as they heard.
I have NO IDEA how I can pull this off!
Called my husband at work and he said "Well, lets go get him!"
How on EARTH am I going to afford this?
