***Update***

We are excited to provide an update for Monica born March of 2012. Our attorney met her August 30, 2022 and says the following:

Monica is a smiling ten-year-old girl. Monica is diagnosed with Tuberous Sclerosis. According to the staff, she was first treated for a brain tumor before it was discovered that she actually had the rare disease Tuberous Sclerosis. She likes individual attention, cuddles, being around children, although she rarely plays with them. She prefers to sit next to them but play alone. She likes toys that make noise or make sounds. The staff said that when they were at sea, she didn’t leave the group and she really liked playing in the sand next to them, and she danced a lot and had fun at the children’s disco. Monica understands speech, can perform certain tasks, but does not speak. The staff of the Home for Disabled Children has heard her imitate a chicken, a horse, and other animals, but when you make her do it, she doesn’t. She also likes to swing on the swing in the yard or be pushed on the bike, but only when she wants. She can feed herself with a spoon very cleanly, without getting dirty, without rushing. She can undress and dress herself, can put on and take off her shoes by herself.
