5 New Kids Need Families!
Brian is a sweet little boy from China that just recently turned 4 years old. He has optic atrophy of both eyes which has caused him to lose his sight, but he appears to be physically healthy in all other regards. Due to his lack of eyesight, Brian is delayed verbally, so he isn’t currently speaking. However he can make many sounds and he can communicate some of his basic needs such as when he is hungry.
Brian can walk on his own and he can get up on his own from a sitting to a standing position. He is very curious and if he hears a sound near him he will go over to it and feel around for the object or person that made the sound. Brian can use a spoon to feed himself at mealtime, although he still needs some guidance from caregivers since he cannot see the food. He also needs help getting dressed, brushing his teeth and bathing.
Brian is very close to his caregivers, but because he cannot see sometimes it is hard for him to play with other children. He is not shy or timid though and he likes to be around other people.
