Shannon had a little girl attached to her during the party. We were told that she had just arrived that day from foster care to come and enjoy the party....ironically we had a photo of her from Monday at the orphanage. She is deaf, and I fear is overlooked too often.. She ate so much food...it was clear she needed it. She loved Shannon and would raise her arms up to be picked up. She screamed when Shannon left--bit tears....the good side is that she can clearly still attach. The bad side is...you know. We want to research foster homes for deaf children in China, if anyone can do that and email me we would love to help her. The bottom photo is me showing the nannies how to feed the Cleft lip/palate baby with the bottle they have. These babies often die if they do not receive proper nutrition from a correct bottle. We hope that the foster home that sends Hohhot milk can help either with cleft bottles or by taking the baby. Our other half of the team was going to talk to them today. Please keep these 2 babies in your prayers...
