Heinrich
Heinrich was born in 2009 with Down syndrome, specific mixed developmental disorder, features of autism, farsightedness, atopic dermatitis, functional heart murmur, hydrocephalus. Due to a difficult birth, he was born with pneumonia, and incubated for a few days.
His development is delayed; he recently started to walk without help, but not yet steady. Emotions are weak, play activity is primitive, throws away toys, turns them around, puts into the mouth, sucks his fingers, makes stereotypic movements with his head, swings.
He’s not yet speaking, and it’s possible he has a hearing delay. He eats with help, does not yet holds a spoon or the bottle, still it is hard for him to chew a hard food. The level of understanding is low, does not have motivation to make an activity.
It sounds like to me he needs a mommy and daddy to reach his full potential. He probably is not getting the attention he needs.
Heinrich has a $1,434 dollars in grant money from Reece's rainbow
Will you please pray for Heinrich, that he would he loved and cared for by the nannies, that he would not get sick, that the nannies would come to know the love of Jesus, that others would see his need for a family and donate and advocate for him, that his future family would come quickly.
Next meet the Mellor family, they are in the process of adopting this sweetie who has congential defects of development.
from their Reece's Rainbow family sponsoring page
Matt and Betsy are a Christian couple who LOVE being parents and are so excited about their family growing! They appreciate so much the work that Reece’s Rainbow does to match up families. While it is certainly a blessing to the children, Matt and Betsy know firsthand that parents receive the lion’s share of the blessings when a child is born into a family through adoption. They are so anxious to bring sweet Maia home and have their family all together!
Matt and Betsy have been married for 15 years. God has blessed them with 2 biological sons, Timothy and Titus, and one adopted daughter, Anne. Anne can’t wait to have a sister! Every night she prays for a sister to share “bump” (bunk) beds with. How exciting that her prayer is being answered! Home is down the street from Betsy’s parents and grandparents and they spend a lot of time with extended family. Everyone is thrilled about Maia and can’t wait to have her home.
Faith is an important part of family life and Matt and Betsy regularly spend time in worship and socially with friends from church. The congregation they attend has many families with children and Maia will be welcomed with open arms by her church family.
Can we please get their adoption grant larger they only have about $50 in adoption grant money and they are traveling to meet their daughter on January 21st. Will you please donate to their adoption grant to help them cover the cost of her redemption? will you please pray for their safety and health as they travel? will you pray for their little girl to know she is loved and to stay healthy as they meet her? Or will you do nothing?
