Alright today's waiting children post is going to be for the sweet kids with heart problems!
Are you ready for some cuteness?
Meet Gwen.
Girl, born September 2009
has siblings (not available for adoption)
blue eyes; blonde hair
FAS; delay of physical and psychomotor development; heart murmur
She was born at 37 weeks, discolored amniotic fluid was present. 2.3g and 42cm at birth. Facial features are typical for fetal alcohol syndrome. During infancy she was observed for anemia, hypotrophy, and was ill with respiratory diseases often. She receives individual physiotherapy, music therapy, and speech therapy. Difficulties in learning due to her insufficient concentration of attention and hyperactivity.
Update April 2011 (18 months old): Gwen is walking along furniture, can sit herself in a children’s chair, attempting to walk independently (2-3 steps). Speaking short words such and bye-bye and wave goodbye. She is interested in toys, takes them into her hands and manipulates them and assembles a pyramid with big rings. She can assemble a small pyramid with someone’s help. Eating solids, drinking from a cup with assistance. Has a good appetite. She enjoys baths and sleeps calmly.
Meet Catherine.

Just like our Julia with Cockayne Syndrome, Holoprosencephaly is a life-shortening condition. You can read more about this condition athttp://www.holoprosencephaly.net/Holoprosencephaly Catherine deserves to have a loving family of her own! There is simply no place in society for her in her native country. Further medical info will be available with submission of first dossier packet.
SINGLE MOMS WELCOME!
Meet my curly haired sweet pea, Leann!
Girl, born January 2009
Heart condition – Double discharge of vessels from the right ventricle (after surgery); Urinary/urethra condition – Ureterostomy (after surgery), atrophy of the anus, colostomy (after surgery)
Additional medical diagnosis available for serious inquiries.
Leann is a very clever, cheerful, jesting girl. She speaks well, and is very sociable.
Meet Davis!
Boy, January 2010
Epilepsy; Congenital cytomegalovirus infection; Acute myocarditis (inflammation of the heart muscle)
Sweet little Davis has so much potential!
Large families welcome, travel required.
Meet Barrett!
Boy, born October 2011
This little love has a heart defect and numerous other health issues: condition after resection of coarctation of the aorta, aneurysm of interatrial septum with multiple defects perimembranous (VSD), laryngotracheomalacia (collapsed airway), micrognathia (abnormally small jaw), tracheostomy
It’s suspected that Barrett may have Pierre Robin syndrome or a chromosome deletion. Families should be prepared for additional health needs, just in case.
Barrett desperately needs a family to give him the love, attention and medical care he needs to thrive.
God Bless,
Alyssa
