Have they tried contacting the Shriner's Hospital? I know the one where I live in Montreal does international kids for free.

Unfortunately, Shriners Hospitals have been hard hit by the recession and reduction in giving. As of April, 2009, they stopped taking international kids, at least for now

I hate to be the bearer of that kind of news! I read it on an adoption board I'm on and was extremely saddened. I hope that this economy recovers soon!!

That really does suck! Man, when I had surgery there at age 14 I made friends with 2 American's, one girl form Poland and one from Antigua!
