I love your show! I'm Bela Wolf, my story/book/screenplay SHE WAS LEFT ALONE is on Kindle now. It's the story of my traveling northern Siberia trying to adopt an abandoned orphan whose American sponsoring parents dropped her adoption, sending her back to a Siberian homeless shelter in the middle of a frozen forest. It was an unholy game of chicken between this mother and me, but she disappeared and i proceeded in earnest to bring back my sick orphaned child. Eight months later I landed 18,000 miles from home in the middle of the desolate polar cap and was told to go home. I didn't. I am not a religious person but I didn't want to meet my maker explaining why I knew a helpless sick child needed me and I did nothing. It was 70 below, I was denied food and water, threatened but eventually I made good friends and became the 1st American woman to "procure" an exit visa for an indigenous nomadic Khanty child w/o the proper documentation. They told me that every day anyway. I prevailed and came home outside of the casket, my daughter is beautiful, healthy and alive. I'd love to share my story with you and your listeners. I can be so helpful to parents adopting overseas and run into roadblocks. Many go home without their children. If I can not help homeless children, i'd like to at least inspire some parents who may actually take NO for an answer. The upload is a picture of my daughter when I finally found her outside of a homeless shelter. Look - reindeer boots. My email, and I'd love to hear from you, is:njbwrb@hotmail.com In any case have a Merry Christmas Happy New Year! Yours truly, Bel Wolf
