Welcome Colby, Shelby, and Ward
Colby Connor is 16 years old and has a 3 month old son, Donte Krish. Colby is interested in changing his son’s name, however—the baby’s mother named him without asking Colby at all, but she doesn’t want to have anything to do with them. Colby likes drums and BMX biking. He isn’t especially pleased about his current situation and we think he might be involved with drugs. His younger sister, Shelby Shayla, is 12 years old and likes making her own jewelry and going for walks. She doesn’t talk very much and is very withdrawn.
Ward Lukas is a 15 year old boy. He’s been in foster care since he was 5 years old, his parents simply abandoned him at school. He is paralyzed from the waist down and uses a wheelchair. He enjoys playing basketball, guitar, and reading science fiction novels.
Please update us on how these kids are doing.
