#Repost @globalpositivenews --- Liz Smith, a 40-year-old nurse at Franciscan Children’s Hospital in Brighton, MA, had always wanted to be a mother. She had tried several different methods of getting pregnant, including sperm donation and IVF (in vitro fertilization) procedure. But nothing worked. + In 2016 she met little Gisele, who was a baby at the time. She was born prematurely at 29 weeks and had neonatal abstinence syndrome (NAS) due to narcotics exposure during the pregnancy. Gisele weighed only 1 pound and 14 ounces (850g). Liz visited the baby every day, but no one else came to see her for five months. + The state took away custody of Gisele from her birth parents, so Liz decided to start fostering her. Her love for the little girl grew even more. On October 18, 2018, she legally adopted Gisele, giving her the surname Smith. -- h/t: USA Today Photo: ASHLEY PIZZUTI ••• @globalpositivenews . #caring #heartwarming #positivepsychology #globalpositivenews #news #somegoodnews #goodnewsmovement #Positivenews #positivenergy #positivity #motherlove #motherdaughter #fostermom #adoption #nurse #baby #prematurebaby #kindness #kindnessmatters #love #randomactsofkindness #mademecry #imnotcryingyouarecrying #adoptiveparents #foster #foster care adoption #Boston #Massachusetts https://www.instagram.com/p/Cpu3whDMGa5/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

#Repost @massadopt @download.ins --- Over 25% of all placements in 2022 were teens! How did we do it? We brought a focus on older youth to every aspect of what we do: events featuring older children, new partnerships to work with youth over the age of 18, and an emphasis on each of our staff members’ caseloads to recruit for children over the age of ten. #MassAdopt #adoptionislove #adoptionrocks #nonprofit #community #nonprofitsofinstagram #fostercareadoption #fostercare #massachusetts #adoption #foreverfamily #family https://www.instagram.com/p/CnqMu4sM2bt/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

👍👍💯 #Repost @massadopt CJ was in foster care for 1,178 days before mom Ashlie adopted him. That's when she became a parent for the first time. "As a first-time parent, CJ and I learned a lot side by side. I am a single, working mom, and without our village, we wouldn’t be where we are. From social workers and resource workers to our family and friends, everyone supported and helped along the way (most still do to this day!)." Today, their family continues to grow as they create lasting relationships with siblings and extended family. "I am extremely lucky that this little guy calls me 'Mom'." #MassAdopt #adoptionislove #adoptionrocks #nonprofit #community #nonprofitsofinstagram #fostercareadoption #fostercare #massachusetts #adoption #foreverfamily #family https://www.instagram.com/p/CnmV34cu0k2/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
