Emmitt is a little boy in an eastern european institution.
He is 13 years old and has spina bifida
This is what his Reece's Rainbow description has to say about him:
Emmitt is a sweet boy. He is living in one of the mental institutions, and has been for many years, yet he remains sweet, intelligent, and kind. Two of our adopting families met him while they were there, and are pleading for a family to save him. From his medical records: myelomeningocele (spina bifida) From one of our adoptive families: "Emmitt has a severe deformity of his legs. He cannot walk at all. He is very friendly, funny, and talkative. He desperately seeks out attention. He was talking to my husband, and holding Zack’s hand, which he then put on top of his head for Zack to rub his hair. He is extremely intelligent, and just precious! I brought him paper and crayons, and he drew me a flower ” We are seeking more official medical information about his condition, but hope someone out there will see this sweet young man and know his kind and loving spirit.
Emmitt will age out when he turns 16 and spend the rest of his life in a bed behind the institution walls.
Please spread the word and help find his family!
