"Get me out of here!"

"Get me out of here!"

That's what Max said to an American family he met...

He is begging to be adopted...

BEGGING!

And he doesn't have much time :(

When Max turns 16 later this year he will be "too old" to be adopted...

His chance for a family will be lost...

He will likely be turned out on the street to fend for himself with little chance of finding a job...

Many orphans end committing suicide after struggling with a hopeless life on the streets!

He is a smart boy and his special needs are minor...

Though they cause him to be teased in his orphanage :(

Max needs a family to believe in him and give him a chance in life!

No child should have to beg for family!

Could you fill Max's heart's desire?

Could he be your son?

You can read more about Max from a someone who MET him personally HERE.
There is also more info and a video of Max HERE.

Sadly Max is not the only young man whose almost out of time!

Barton is a quiet young man who loves nature and music...

Imagine the joy of showing him the ocean for the first time....

Or the zoo...

Or the mountains...

Or taking him to hear a band play...

Or a symphony!

There are so many beautiful things he has never seen or heard in his bleak orphanage life!

You could be the one to show him the beautiful sites and sounds he has never experienced...

And you could be the one to show him what real love is...

And that he is special!

He must be adopted before he turns 16 later this year...

Or it will be too late :(

Please consider Barton!

Simon was blessed to be moved to a group home-like situation with 8 other children...

He has to receive some schooling....

And better care!

But as wonderful as this is...

It can never truly replace the security and love of a family of his own!

Simon needs a family ASAP - he must find a family before he turns 16 in October...

Please consider Simon!

Casey spends much of his time in bed...

He looks like he is perhaps 7 or 8 years old...

But he will turn SIXTEEN this coming June - only 5 months from now!

That's what years of neglect will do to a child :(

Thankfully, despite his circumstances...

This beautiful boy can still SMILE!

He truly deserves so much more than life has yet given him!

If only he can be adopted...

He can truly begin to LIVE...

But he doesn't have much time :(

We MUST find a family for him FAST!

Please share Casey with others to help him find one!

Last (for today) but certainly not least is "my" dear Emmitt!

The special boy who is the focus of my blog!

Emmitt has just over a year to be adopted...

He has spent years in a mental institution even though he is an intelligent boy whose needs are mostly physical :(

Please pray that Emmitt will be adopted before he turns 16...

He deserves so much MORE than life in a crib!
