Leydi is four years old, has cerebral palsy, and is malnourished. Her physical therapist tells me she is at about a 4 month level of physical capabilities. Good thing we like four month olds!
She is very sweet, smiles a lot, and only cries occasionally. She is a beautiful little girl!
On her way to her new home!
Having a little "get to know you" cuddle. Those are my favourite. She is an amazing cuddle bug!
I realized I didn't have many pictures of her yet, so I ran to get more quickly. This one is sort of terrible, but she would smile only when the camera wasn't ready!
She will start physical therapy this week, and tomorrow we visit the dentist! She has little rotten stumps for teeth like Luz did.
So far, we have only found one dentist in all of Guatemala that is willing to work with kids with special needs. She will need to have anaesthetic in order to work on her teeth. I'm just thankful we have found someone who will work on her.
Please pray for Leydi! Though the transition has seemed smooth so far, I'm sure she is wondering where her mom is.
