Successful

Angelo was born in February of 2013. Angelo loves vehicles! He loves hot wheels, race cars, dump trucks, fire engines, monster trucks (these might be his favorite), and four wheelers. He enjoys playing outside in the backyard with his brother and sisters, holding his guinea pigs, and helping his dad fix things in the garage. The most difficult thing for Ang is family relationships. He has been diagnosed with RAD; it’s an an attachment disorder due to his life before we adopted him. He suffered from a month-long withdrawal from drugs at birth. He was left alone, with very little human interaction, and laid in a crib for almost three years of his life. I can’t even imagine what he went through. His reactions to everyday normal situations are almost like flashbacks. His behavior comes out in the most unloving ways to us, his immediate family. Hugs and signs of love are almost painful to him at times, but he shows outward signs of love to strangers. This is something we are always working on. We were so blessed to be able to adopt three kids from foster care, one being Angelo’s biological little sister Rosalina. The neglect Rosie suffered was very similar to Angelo’s, and thankfully she didn’t have to suffer for long. She came to us at seventeen days old. Angelo picked Disney World because it has been a dream of his to get to meet all the characters from his favorite Disney movies (he loves them all)! He is so excited to ride on the Test Track! He tells everyone his sisters are princesses so the choice for him was easy. Angelo absolutely deserves some Disney Magic. This will be a dream come true for all of us.
