Jace was born on October 9, 2006. He was abandoned at the the gate of a local orphanage on March 9, 2007. When his parents couldn’t be located, they admitted him into the hospital and diagnosed him with a severe heart defect. He’s received two surgeries to repair his heart defect so far and needs a third surgery. The organization that paid for his first two surgeries is no longer able to take care of him, so they returned him to his orphanage. Due to his extensive medical needs, his home orphanage asked us to take him while he waits for his third surgery. He came to New Day on March 11, 2010. Jace is a strong-willed little boy who sometimes gets upset if he doesn’t get his way, but he loves to be praised and he’s able to understand and communicate with adults. We know Jace’s case is very difficult, but we hope to see him grow stronger and have a long and healthy life!
