Lexi


Tonight we committed to sponsor a little girl named Lexi in China at An Orphan's Wish. She has spina bifida and clubfeet, so she is recieving treatment there before being placed in foster care and hopefully adopted. Because they need to place her in foster care to make room for another child with clubfeet, the sponsorship will most likely only last 6-9 months. She'll have a series of casts placed on her legs. Then, she'll have to wear braces on them. I'm praying that she'll be able to walk. The coordinator told me her outcome would be uncertain because of the spina bifida, but they need to correct the clubfeet to be able to determine the extent of the spina bifida. She's two years old, and I can't wait for the updates on her progress! Just look at that sweet little face!
