Allison has cerebral palsy and microcephalus. She is delayed developmentally. Allison is able to pull herself to standing (we have video of her doing this!) and can stand alone without support for 10-20 seconds. She can also take a few steps when holding onto something for support. She responds to her name but is not yet saying any words.
Allison’s birth mother made the difficult decision to make an adoption plan for Allison so that she can receive the best care available. Her birth mother visits her at the children’s home on a regular basis. I’m sure it would ease her birth mother’s mind to know that Allison has a loving family who is able to meet her needs and help her thrive.
Update April 2020:Allison enjoys watching cartoons and playing with stimulating toys; especially ones with sound and light! Allison communicates through giggles and physical contact. Allison has global developmental delays and needs a family who can celebrate her and help her reach her full potential.
