Baby David is home at last

 

We are so thrilled that the Happy House Kids have a new brother, David Hayward. David was abandoned by his Mother on the 20th of December 2010, he was 2 months premature and weighed 1.5kgs. His birth Mother walked out of the hospital within hours, as so often happens. He should have come home to us last week but the hospital found his blood count was very low and needed to have a small transfusion. It may be that David's Mum was HIV positive. We will not know if David also has the virus until he is a few months old and the tests can be more conclusive than at this age.

The Happy House Kids are always thrilled to have a new brother, and welcomed him with open arms.
