Alina is a precious little girl, who is described as sensitive. She has a good appetite, but is allergic to fish and shrimp and needs to avoid oily foods. Alina likes playing with toys by herself most of the time, but will occasionally participate in group activities. She will play with other children when she is very happy. Alina has good motor skills. At the time her file was prepared, they said she was flexible and strong and that she could sit and turn over. Alina is reported to have average language skills. She can call out “mom” and “aunt.” She can understand simple words, such as “Come over here!” and “Time for dinner!” She will respond to questions. Alina was born with Down syndrome and congenital heart disease. She had surgery in December of 2017 for coarctation of aortic arch and recovered well. We are hoping for an update and for a forever family for beautiful Alina!
A specific adoption agency has a $1500 grant for Alina!
