Meet Philip! He needs an adoptive family! Could you or someone you know be the right fit for this smiley waiting child?
Philip is a friendly and cheerful 7-year-old boy who always seems to have a smile on his face. He’s cuddly and affectionate with his caregivers and likes to play and be silly with children his age. He enjoys new experiences and is growing each day!
Philip likes to spend time outside and sometimes uses a wheelchair to get around. He goes to physical therapy every weekday and is making amazing progress with his motor skills. Because he practices his therapy exercises with patience and perseverance, he can now crawl, sit without support and is learning to stand with assistance. His biggest accomplishment so far is standing while holding onto a crib bar for a few minutes. Philip sleeps through the night and is a good eater. He often eats porridge or noodle soups at mealtimes.
Because of his involved medical needs, Philip would be best supported by an adoptive family with access to comprehensive medical care and therapeutic resources. With individualized love and attention, connected parenting and a structured and safe home environment, Philip will thrive with an adoptive family and rise to his full potential.
