HelpWelcome Antoine, Megan, Isaac, Chipo and Sasha!
in reply to a message by Georgia-Claire
Antoine Robbe is a sixteen-year-old boy from Belgium. He speaks French and some English, because his mother was English. Both of his parents are now dead. He likes animals, drawing and comic books. Antoine is bisexual and also partially deaf, so he wears a hearing aid.
Megan Marie is a five-year-old girl from Aberdeen, Scotland. She is asthmatic and was abused by her parents. She is very shy, and likes animals, colouring, dancing and the colour pink.
Isaac Andile is a four-year-old boy from Zimbabwe. His mother died from AIDs and his father gave him up for adoption because he wanted him to have a better life. Isaac speaks English and loves toy cars, stuffed animals and music.
Chipo Tendai is a newborn girl from Zimbabwe, and is Isaac's younger sister. Her father gave her away for the same reason he gave up Isaac. Chipo has no interests yet and cannot talk yet.
Alexandra "Sasha" is fourteen and from Moscow, Russia. Sasha was severely abused by her stepfather at a young age. She has a lot of behavioral problems and has already run away from several adoption placements. Sasha is now pregnant but is not in contact with the father of her child. She mostly speaks Russian but is picking up English easily. She loves music, movies and playing the guitar.
Please update us on your adoptees!

Tony (as we've taken to calling Antoine) is a very sensitive and creative boy. He's a pleasure to live with and is so considerate of others. We're so glad that he is now a member of our family.
Meg is doing very well. She's speaking to a councillor about her abuse and is doing very well with it. Her doctor has also given her some excercises to do to help with her asthma. She's also thrilled to have two big sisters who love pink every bit as much as she does!
Isaac and Chipo are also fantastic. They both love to listen to rock music and dance about together (Chip is doing great at walking now), singing along to the lyrics. They have a very special bond due to being biological siblings that we're keen to nurture but they also get on wonderfully with the other children.
Sasha has been a bit of a struggle but we feel that we're the right people to help her. We asked her whether she wanted to see a councillor to which she responded she didn't. Instead we spend plenty quality time with her every day, plyaing guitar and watching movies together. Martha and Sasha have been going to guitar lessons together whilst Jake and Sasha attend a local Russian club where Jake is learning Russian and Sasha can talk to others in her native language.
She recently welcomed a daughter into the world, a little angel called Nina. Having her has changed her for the better and we've noticed her become much less flighty. She now acknowledges that for Nina's sake she must remain in the one place.
