Meet Alexis
This is Alexis!
Isn't she GORGEOUS!??
She is ELEVEN years old!
She needs a family ASAP! And she REALLY wants one too!
She is eligible to be adopted by LARGE FAMILIES and OLDER PARENTS (up to age 55)
She has Arthrogryposis in all four limbs and mild mental retardation is listed too (AMC and mental retardation are *not* diagnoses that co-exist very often so I am hoping this diagnosis is more a result of being in an institution likely since birth)
Thankfully she is an institution where is loved and has access to an outside aide organization but this is NOT a substitue for a family!!
Ohh someone please go adopt her! She reminds me of a little girl I met in the waiting room at Shriners Philadelphia, she too was eleven, has AMC and had been adopted from China.
Her Reeces Rainbow profile can be viewed here: http://reecesrainbow.org/alexis3905
If you think Alexis would be a great addition to your family contact Reeces Rainbow!

Giveaways!
Two Families who are adopting little girls with Arthrogryposis are doing giveaways to raise the much need funds to get their daughters home!
International adoptions are very, very expensive. Ranging from $15,000-$35,000 for 1 adoption of 1 or 2 kids.
Most families do not have this kind of money just sitting around so they have to fundraise for the money and apply for grants and save ever penny to fund the adoptions.
If these families didn't step out in faith these little girls would likely end up being transferred to mental institutions in a couple of short years where they would very likely die of neglect, starvation or an illness brought on by the extremely poor environments.
The Senti's are adopting Ember (formerly Tasha) and they are giving away two necklaces. For every $5 donated your name will be entered into the drawing! This giveaway ends on March 31st.

The Ferrone's are adopting Moira and Nastya (Nastya has Apert Syndrome) and they're giving away a DIAMOND RING, a necklace and a set of earrings. By donating $5 you'll be entered into the drawing (or $20 will get you 5 enteries!), by donating a $1 you'll be entered into the drawing for either the necklace or the earrings!

Meet Joel!!!
This cutie is just 5 months old! This is the PERFECT time to get started on that paperwork so that he could be home by a year old if not sooner! He has Arthrogryposis (I'm assuming all limbs as it doesn't say otherwise), convulsive disorder, hypotrophy, capillary hemangioma of the right cheek and back region. I am guessing by looking at his hands he has the most common form of Arthrogryposis, called Amyoplasia. Amyoplasia is a non-genetic form of Arthrogryposis (many forms of AMC are genetic) Arthrogryposis is very treatable and babies respond to therapy the best during the first year of life, so the sooner he is home the easier treatment will likely be!!
