Dennis

Boy, born December 2009 

Dennis did not seem thrilled about having his nap interrupted for pictures, but he sure looks like he's got personality!  

 

He has Down syndrome and a patent foramen ovale – which is a small hole between the chambers of the heart.  This is common in childhood, and often closes without any medical intervention. 

These children are blessed to be in an excellent orphanage, however this region typically requires 3 trips (due to length of time between appt and court).  This is a great orphanage and the children receive excellent care, and there is minimal travel in-country.  This orphanage is close to the Capital city, so it's fantastic for sight-seeing. 

We have had many successful adoptions from this orphanage, and families are willing to share their experiences.
