Kristion

Pretty in pink is our Kristion!  She is such a cute little girl that your heart will melt when she first smiles at you. This little one is determined to live her life to its fullest. Kristion is an African -American gift born in December of 2000. She enjoys people, company, and attention. Listening to classical music is one of her favorite pastimes and she thrives when she is being read to. Kristion smiles and coos with you when being talked to.
Kristion is diagnosed with Mental Retardation as a result of Shaken Baby Syndrome. She is also diagnosed with autonomic and hypothalamus disregulation, seizure disorder, gastroesophageal reflux, hypertension and is feeding solely through a g-tube. Her doctor has recommended that she be held, snuggled with, and talked to in order to increase her awareness. Kristion is currently benefitting from regional Center Services.

We hope that you will want to share your heart and your family with this beautiful girl, and be able to provide the support and encouragement that she needs to continue to thrive and be the best she can be.

If you are interested in adopting Kristion, please contact the Department of Children and Family services at (626) 229-3790.
