He is able to walk well on his own, but since he has some difficulty with his gait, when he runs, he tends to fall. He has been receiving physical therapy for the last two years and the orphanage staff say that he is still improving. They say that he doesn’t have as many friends as the other children because he isn’t able to keep up with the other boys. The nannies say that in spite of his special need, he is fully independent. He is continent and is able to take good care of himself. His speech is very clear and is not affected by the cerebral palsy and he can see and hear well. The volunteer doctor at the orphanage noted that he has a right positive babinski sign.

ANGEL____________________________________________
Sweet, precious Angel is only 4 years old. Please read about this beautiful Angel!
ID: Angel SP.FAJ.1206.32308.0
This child is a part of the Special Focus program
Angel is a shy little girl. Her caregivers report that she doesn’t talk. She will grab food in her hands, but doesn’t put the food into her mouth. The orphanage staff says that she eats a diet mostly of milk or biscuits soaked in milk. The caregivers say that each day, she spends about half of her time in her crib and half of her time on the floor. She is able to sit well on her own. She doesn’t usually play with other children. A volunteer doctor who was at the orphanage observed that the back of her head is flat and she has a big tongue, but her liver and spleen seem normal, her hands do not have a simian crease and she is a bit hypotonic. The volunteer doctor also noted that she seems to have failed to thrive. Angel's greatest need right now is a family who will give her plenty of individual attention and help her reach her full potential.
This child is listed with WACAP through a special partnership project with his/her orphanage. At this time, his/her file is not eligible to be transferred to a different agency.

ID: Ruby JH5.WRX.0905.31338.0
This child is part of the Special Focus program. For more information please contact a Case Worker at ckids@wacap.org.
Ruby has a short physical stature for her age. Her caregivers say that she does grow, but very slowly. The doctor at the orphanage says that she has congenitally fused vertebrae and they are short and flat which makes her spine shorter than normal. She is incontinent and continues to wear diapers. Her left arm has delays and while she can grip things, she cannot carry heavy items very well with that hand. They say that her left leg and foot are basically normal. She has normal and clear speech and the caregivers say that she has normal mental development. She can run and likes to play with other children. Ruby is currently receiving education at the orphanage and next year they will see if she can go to a regular school outside the orphanage, but they are not sure she will be accepted because of her special need. Even though she looked serious when we met her, the caregivers say that she is usually a very happy girl. She is currently living at the orphanage and is waiting for a loving family to adopt her.
There is a $4200 Promise Child grant for eligible families for this adoption. Please contact a Family Finders Case Manager for more information.

This child is part of the Special Focus program. For more information please contact Case Worker at ckids@wacap.org
"Oliver" is in 7th grade in the special education school where English is his favorite subject. His caregiver reports he has a difficult time focusing, but it may be because it seems he has some difficulty hearing. Oliver continually asked for questions to be repeated and watched the lips of the person talking. His caregiver said his hearing is normal and that he was just nervous, but he said he sometimes can’t hear what is being said. He has not had speech therapy, but Oliver will likely need it due to his post operative cleft lip and palate. He likes watching TV. He enjoys reading comic books, and Batman is his favorite superhero. His favorite sport is basketball and Oliver loves a hamburger.

ID: JH4.FSQ.0399.31074.01
This child is part of the Special Focus program.
He told us very proudly that he is eleven years old. He likes to play games with his classmates – especially basketball. He can play any sports game that the other children play in school which is very impressive because his legs are affected by CP. He goes to a school for the disabled, but the nannies report that they aren’t able to send all of the children to “normal” school, so some of them have to attend the special school for the disabled. His intelligence is normal and they expect that he would do fine in a regular school. He wants to manage a shop when he grows up because he would like to be the boss. He is able to clean his room, dress, feed, and toilet on his own. He doesn’t let anything stop him! His teachers report that he is a good tempered child whose greatest need is a family of his own.
There is a $4200 Promise Child grant for eligible families for this adoption and a possible additional fee reduction. Please contact us for details.Please contact a Family Finders Case Manager for more information.
