Mandy

Girl, Born February 1, 2010

We are so happy to have some updated pictures of Mandy!  She was born with multiple skeletal anomalies, including fused/webbed hands.

From her medical records:  

  • syndactyly of hands and feet
  • steeple tower head
  • psychological and motor delay
  • patent foramen ovale
  • secondary defect of interatrial septum
  • Her current weight is 9 kg 800 g; height is 77 cm.

The girl is smiling, laughing. She reaches for toys. She walks in baby-jumper.    Doctors consider that surgery may help to separate her fingers on the hands.   They give a positive prognosis regarding her mental development.  More photos are available.

This region typically waives the 10 day waiting period for children with special needs.   Please consider one (or more!) of these beautiful angels from orphanage 41.

$352.70 is available towards the cost of my adoption!
