Meet Anna/Anna Michelle from her Reece's Rainbow page: " Anna Michelle ages out at the beginning of August! Her file is outdated (2009) From her file at the age of 7: Although Anna Michelle can’t see the world she is intelligent and never cries, always waits until the aunts finish work and then play games with her. She can master quickly all the knowledge she has learned. She likes singing and can sing well. Due to the problems of her eyes, it influences her living to some extent, but she can take care of herself, eat alone, put on and off clothes, wash and clean bedclothes. The aunts always praise Anna Michelle is an
From one of her classmates (and his family) who is now home in the US:
Anna Michelle attends a prestigious School For the Blind where she is an excellent student in grade 5 and earns high grades She is skilled in her native Braille language. She can speak some English and braille English as well (literary uncontracted braille). She enjoys reading and History is her favorite subject. She also plays the Liu Qin which is a 4 string Mandolin. Anna Michelle is in chorus and still LOVES to sing- with the voice of an angel! She loves to play with the other kids on the playground and is independent in regards to self care for hygiene, meals, dressing, etc. Anna Michelle also has excellent O&M skills and uses a white cane to get around independently. She is kind and thinks of her friends, remembering birthdays and doing sweet things for them". There is a $5,000+ grant available for her adoption through Reece's Rainbow.

There are many more negative perceptions about the abilities of blind people in China that will lock her out of so many opportunities up to and possibly including being told she is incapable of caring for her own children as a blind mother. Blind adults in America can be neuro-scientists, mechanical engineers, NASA scientists, lawyers, the list goes on and on."
