Our Adoption Journey

About me

Location	Georgia, United States
Introduction	We met at the University of Georgia through our good friend, Anne. After dating six years, Nadeem and I got married and have been happily married for 14 years. We've always longed for children, but our path to parenthood has been surprising. I (Sherri) suffered health problems for 12 years due to mercury poisoning. After God healed me, Nadeem and I thought that I would quickly conceive. We believe in the power of prayer and didn't understand why God wasn't answering our cry for children. We had already witnessed God's loving hand in other instances. Nadeem was raised as a Muslim and became a Christian several years after we were married. I had experienced God's healing power. We were confused and lacked direction. However, God had much bigger plans that would involve a journey across the globe to adopt a baby girl!
