Megan still needs her family to find her!!!
Megan has a family!!!!
I'm repeating a post about Megan with an update as recent as May 2011!!!:
She can pick up food and put in her mouth, and she can also bear weight when placed in a standing position. She does not have a lot of strength in her core area, which would really help her ability to be mobile. She receives some therapy at Starfish, but needs more aggressive therapies to help her get stronger. The types of therapy available in China are not the same caliber as available in the US and other countries. One family did donate a small pool, floaties and rings for Megan to do some water therapy. This will be helpful, but she needs a family to love her, provide a consistent routine, and get her started on the occupational and physical therapies she very much needs. She is a precious little girl, and can so quickly see the difference in her surroundings and people around her.

Operation Starfish
(click on the logo to visit her etsy shop)
Her name is Rachel and she is 13 years old. In April of 2011 she went to Xian, China to volunteer at the Starfish Foster Home for a week. Starfish takes care of children with special health needs from the local orphanages. These children stay with them until they are adopted. She was inspired on her trip and wanted to do more. Her goal is to raise $3000 for the babies' surgeries this year. 100% of the proceeds from this etsy shop will go towards helping the Starfish Foster Home.
What an amazing thing to do for a 13 year old!!!! I really admire her for doing this!
