"Her closest companion...

In 2005, while working on the adoption of daughter Kate Xiyuan, we learned from the social development papers the name of her closest companion---Dang Ting. Thus, began a two year journey to Ting. But this journey followed an unusual path. For that reason I call this, Journey With Ting. Further down the road, you'll understand.

So, who is Ting? We asked questions everywhere. We learned very little. Finally, some dear ladies who were visiting Yangquan in June 2005 offered to take pics. The first picture we received was of a crowded staircase and in the midst was a thin young girl in a white dress, carefully choosing her next step. So, we began our first steps of a new journey for her.
