Name: Benjamin
Birthdate: December 22, 2004

Benjamin was born on December 22, 2004 and a year later he was left abandoned at the local train station. Benjamin has been diagnosed with hypomelanosis of Ito which causes areas of skin to have partial or total absence of pigment. He also has a hiatal hernia which he had surgery for in July 2006. His condition requires that he eats small portions more frequently. He continues to have difficulty keeping his food down so needed to return to Beijing for more treatment. He has now joined the New Day family and we look forward to seeing him improve.
