Last night I found a listing for a little boy named Shao. He is one year old and doesn't have a left forearm. I so badly wish we qualified for China and that our homestudy was completed because I would apply for him in a heartbeat... Here is his listing...
Shao
Shao is a very curious, playful little 1-year-old who is fond of being with others. He may have experienced amniotic band syndrome in vitro, which could have resulted in his being born without a left forearm. He has adapted wonderfully, although he may wish to be fitted with prosthesis when he comes home. Some follow-up will need to be conducted to track his growth, too.
I've made it a point to pray for this little boy. He indeed needs a loving home. A home where he can thrive and grow. A home that will be his forever...
