Dang Xin Hui was born on June 15, 2004. Xin Hui was born with a
Ventricular Septal Defect (VSD) of her heart which has not been
repaired. Due to this condition, her motor skills are delayed; she
was not walking as of her report this spring. This beautiful little
one needs a family! Couples and single parents under the age of 50
are preferred by the CCAA.

From: "Richard Graham" View contact details To: "bonnie pontillo" Bonnie, We have marked her as placed with your family. We want to be sure you understand that we do not know the exact reasons for her delays and there is no way of knowing until she is here. As you know, with heart babies they are prone to gross motor skill delays due to their conditions. However, there is no way to adequately evaluate her while she is still in China to find the true source of these delays. We need your full name, address and phone. When we return from vacation we will fedex the pre-approval forms to you. Have a great day. Cheryl

Hi Cheryl I hate to bother you again and on a weekend but just in case I wasnt clear in my previous posts , I would like to be dang Xin Hui momma. I know that its states that she could not walk yet but that the info was from March . I have a few concerns but I am aware that developement delays are the norm in institutionalized children but I also know that these kids usually catch up quickly with the love and attention of a family. I did speak to someone who has adopted two children thru your agency and she gave you a resounding recommendation so I am ready to proceed. we have been buying clothes and toys for our "Zoe" for a few months and are in the process of starting to decorating her/toy room . Please let me kow what happens next? Thank you for your time as well as for the great work that you do on behalf of children and families; Bonnie

Bonnie, You don't need to have a complete dossier or homestudy in order to commit to adopt a child. We only need to know that you meet the CCAA requirements, and are ready to commit to follow through with the adoption. Let us know if this is your daughter! Cheryl

Hi Richard I have started my homestudy and collecting the dossier requirements. How paper ready do you need to be? I have been researching adoption for over a year and am ready to find my daughter . Thank you Bonnie

Bonnie, All the information we have about her is on the site. Our fees for waiting children are very low; this includes the orphanage donation, agency fee, CCAA fee, and fees in the province. We do not place children on hold; if you qualify under the CCAA requirements and are ready to commit to a child, then the child is assigned to you. Let us know if you have any other questions.
