~The Reality of A Special Needs Child or Orphan in Eastern Europe~

The reality of a special needs child in Eastern Europe is much different than that of a special needs child in America!  The harsh reality is that a child with special needs in Eastern Europe is most times thought of as a burden to a family that has very little means to provide and no health care.  Most, pretty much all, of these children will be sent to orphanages where they will remain there until around the age of 4 where they will be sent to or scheduled to be sent to an institution where they will most likely continue to decline or die.  These children are underfed, under-weight, and under-loved!!!! THEY NEED US! They sit there day in and day out, WAITING on a mommy and daddy who will come to rescue them from what lies ahead!  PLEASE help us to save one of these children. Our little Ava (Yulia) has spent far too long waiting! I remember seeing Gabby for the first time.  When they placed her in my arms, her pale skin was striking!  She had bald spots in her head, she was tiny, and starving!  She was sick and not recieving any care whatsoever!  The thoughts of Ava being in the very same shape right now is terrifying! PLEASE HELP! She doesn't have to keep waiting! Remember, donations through Reeces Rainbow (click our donate button about) are taxe deductable!!!! If you can help, please do so! You wont find a better way to contribute!!!! THANKS SO MUCH!
