Healing Home is an orphanage that I visited. When I was there I saw kids with cleft lips and palates. It made me feel very sad for them. I saw smaller babies and even a very brand new baby. These children are at the orphanage just because of the way their lips and palates look. The way people think in China is different from the United States. In the United States we would keep the baby, take it to a doctor, and it would have surgery. We were at Healing Home for an hour. I was sad when I left because I felt sorry for the babies.
One of the babies was mischievous. She tried to get out of the gate and she would go under tables and try to hide from us. She thought Mr. Andy was hilarious. I am guessing she was around 1 year old because she was crawling. Her name was Sombrita (not sure how to spell it).
