Marshall
Birthdate: October 11, 2011
Marshall was found by a policeman on the evening of November 10, 2011. He was found without identification and was estimated at being one month old. As the orphanage staff examined him, they found that he was in critical condition, so they rushed him to the local hospital. The orphanage staff took him to four local hospitals, but none could do anything for him, so they called us. The next day, November 11, 2011, we agreed to take his case, and the orphanage staff drove him to the hospital in Guangzhou where we were waiting for him. Marshall was immediately admitted into surgery and diagnosed with previously repaired GI defect. But after his first surgery, Marshall had not healed properly and was in dire need of intervention. Marshall has had a second successful surgery, and we hope that he will recover quickly and well. He is a handsome little boy who has a strong cry and is alert. He’s a fighter and we’re sure that there are more miracles in his future. Read his amazing story.
