Hi,
A friend of mine and her husband (both long-time macrobiotic practitioners) adopted a young girl many years ago who turned out to have some mental and emotional deficiencies and raised this girl into adulthood.
Living with this young woman has been like riding a roller coaster and not long after her hormones kicked, in did she start getting intimate with boys and soon after, she got pregnant (while still in high school!)
So my friend and her husband have been trying to raise this young woman and her child with the young woman going in and out of macrobiotics often getting involved with men who are not macrobiotic combined with drug and alcohol usage while her adoptive mother has been raising the little boy, now around 5 or seven years old!
My friend, who I like to call Granma, not long ago, fell down and broke her hip and while still recovering, her very hard working husband fell ill and has been very weak and bed-ridden and my friend has needed to often spoon feed him and is finding herself to feel quite overwhelmed now-a-days.
This family is living out in the country and does not have much of a macrobiotic support system and is considering giving up the very active but nice young boy for adoption.
Is there anyone in our macrobiotic community that might have room in their home and heart for a nice little boy, whose grandmother would like to have continue to be raised in a macrobiotic environment?
If you are interested in finding out more about this child and family please inquire with me privately by email.
Thank you, very much.
Be well, be your best, and be blessed!
