I just found out that "Darren" has six more months before he is transferred!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
His papers were already processed and a huge sacrifice was made to give him more time.
Please help me to share about him-again! Let's not have this gift of mercy go to waste!
He is gentle with others. When he is upset or overwhelmed, he often does 'self-stim' movements such as hand writhing or vocalizations. He listens and follows very basic directions from his caregivers. I have also observed him to be content to sit still and people watch as well as engage in quiet, exploratory play on their small jungle gym. He walks with just a little bit of help.
I have noted a developmental delay in all areas which is a natural occurrence with a child who has either congenital or environmental trauma to his central nervous system and has been institutionalized.
Darren is affectionate. He would love to have a mother and a father. I'm sure he would also adore any siblings from what I saw of his interaction with others in his room.
