He needs an adoptive family! Jack will be three years old in november. He is in a fosterhome right now. Wouldn’t it be great if his family finds him soon? What an amazing birthday present that would be!<br /><br />Recent update: Jack is two and a half years old and has such a sparkling personality. He really is the life of the party. He loves people and will let any one hold him. He is smart and his Chinese is coming along so well. He asks for anything he wants to eat and his favorite is M&M’s but he also loves Cheerios. He was born with Spina bifida and at birth his legs were already paralyzed. He had surgery at about two months for the SB and later got a Shunt for his hydrocephalus. He was recently given a wheel chair and at the end of day one he was already navigating it around the house.<br /><br />He’s still on the China special needs adoption shared list. Male 11/2/2007 Postoperative meningomyelocele for more than 5 months, hydrocephalus.<br /><br />Here’s some links I found the last couple of months; with pictures of “sparkling” Jack:<br /><br />http://oneprincessandaprince.blogspot.com/2010/07/mission-monday-jack-needs-family.html<br />http://chinesestarfish.blogspot.com/2010/07/jacks-gift.html<br />http://www.facebook.com/home.php?#!/photo.php?pid=4059257&id=644087423<br />http://gettandostellemarine.blogspot.com/2010/03/jack.html<br />http://cornbreadandchopsticks.blogspot.com/2010/09/this-weeks-wonderful-waiting-kids_08.html<br />http://www.thestarfishfosterhome.org/babiesdetail.aspx?id=11<br /><br />Any help in getting him a forever family would be appreciated!!!<br />http://jackadoptionfund.blogspot.com/Jethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08749441032482259071noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-397162027481998748.post-43112603518486437742010-04-21T12:14:37.504-07:002010-04-21T12:14:37.504-07:00Oh how horrible, Ellen.

It is perfect timing for me to read this though. I am writing an article about CTR for our local DSA newsletter. I'm sending you an email to ask if I can use a quote in there ;).Qadoshyahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15824192344524447095noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-397162027481998748.post-20179339553186397432010-04-16T19:02:58.543-07:002010-04-16T19:02:58.543-07:00This is close to my heart, it's heartbreaking,...This is close to my heart, it's heartbreaking, and I feel so helpless....<br /><br />Poor Nina, poor Ari,and the poor little cross eyed boy that got punished just for waving at us...<br /><br />And the endless number of children that are alone and unwanted right now.Jodihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16665816593780393953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-397162027481998748.post-10133833511045980782010-04-10T19:01:11.080-07:002010-04-10T19:01:11.080-07:00That breaks my heart thinking this is what is happ...That breaks my heart thinking this is what is happening to my daughter right now.
