Gary Stocklaufer says he's still being treated unfairly by a judge in his home state of Missouri. Despite having weight loss surgery in Dallas, he received notice from a judge overruling his motion for a rehearing to adopt his cousin's son. More Local News

Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

I dont know but I think its horrific myself. This man has the compassion to take these kids and adopt them and even from his own family. This is a outrage to say the least.

I have been following this on the news here. I think it is shameful. He definetly needs to appeal this judge's ruling. If the Judge can deny his claim based on health reasons then it opens the gate for ruling against people with other health conditions or even a family history of bad health. Shame on this Judge for opening this door. Hopefully this man will be able to get the judge's decision overturned. But I feel sorry for the child, being moved from home to home.

Found an article quoting the Jackson County (Mo.) court spokeswoman, Kelley Carpenter.

Couldn't find any contact info for Stocklaufer.

Found this address and contact info for the Jackson County Court, apparently adoptions are held through their

Family Justice Center

Street Kansas City, MO 64108

Find this information for another Contact Person: Rosalee Schottel.

And here are the phone number and fax number.

Phone: (816) 435-4788 Fax: (816) 435-4793

Couldn't find the Judge's name.
