Name: Owen
Birthdate: July 16, 2008.

Owen was born on July 16, 2008. Five days later he was found abandoned and sent to the local orphanage. He was diagnosed with anal atresia and had a temporary colostomy surgery in the local hospital on July 22, 2008. Three hours after the surgery was finished, Owen's heart suddenly stopped beating. This little fighter showed everyone his strong desire for living, because after 5 minutes of CPR, he was resuscitated. Because the local hospital was unable to fully treat his anal atresia, his orphanage asked us to help. On August 11, Owen arrived at New Day Foster Home. Though he was tiny when he arrived, he is now one of our rambunctious toddlers!
