Jacie, 12 years old, PA

Wish submitted by:

Jacie has not had it easy in life. She experienced a tremendous amount of abuse and neglect from one of her parents, and her other parent passed away in a tragic incident. She bounced around to various homes before landing in her now adoptive home. Unfortunately, some of her previous placements were pre-adoptive but gave notice for her and did not treat her with the love and respect she deserved. She was finally adopted into a family that sees her for the wonderful young lady she is, and she is beginning to thrive. Although she is beginning to do well in her home, she still has a lot of trauma and past experiences that will make for a long journey of healing ahead of her.

Jacie was recently adopted into her new family, making this a very special day for her. She often thought that this moment would never arrive. Previously, she had been placed in several different homes, some of which were meant to be pre-adoptive but ultimately fell through, leading to requests for her removal. Although Jacie tends to be more reserved and is not always expressive with her emotions, this day holds great significance for her, and she is truly happy to be welcomed into her new family. This bracelet will serve as a beautiful reminder of how loved she is and of her special adoption day.
