Miss Annah who was adopted by Liesel was a child sponsored in our program in Liberia. She has a special need involving her back and ability to walk properly. I cant begin to tell you how thrilled I am to see her home with her new America Ma. Its what her Liberian aunts wanted for her and the only way she was ever going to have a fighting chance at life. Congratulations Liesel and family. Welcome Annah to America! Look at her Shine!
I, with Annah, in Liberia a year ago, giving her gifts from her American Ma.
Who can forget Baby Anthony who was barely a year old when he came to America on a medical visa to deal with his Hydrocephalus. Anthony is still here working on medical issues. He just got glasses this past week. His doctors did anther extensive update and discovered this beautiful boy should not be alive. He is a living miracle. He has a skull bone that is thicker than anyone has ever seen and his brain is only a 1/4 inch wide doughnut shape with a massive fluid in the middle. They said he should not be able to communicate, move, interact, or exist. Yet he he is doing all that and then some. He is even scooting across the floor even though his head far out weighs the rest of his small body. He is an absolute joy to his host family. Look at him Shine!
And now Anthony has a new baby sister who is just like him as his host family has been asked to foster a baby girl with the same issue. God does know what he is doing doesnt he? Anthony is so taken with her. What a blessing Marilyn and her family are to these kids and they to them. God's design- a family for EVERY Child!
