Determined Darcy, born in February of 2009, is described as joyful and optimistic. Darcy was a camper at an advocacy camp run by another agency in November of 2017, where she went by Whitby. Agency reps and Darcy’s camp partner said that she was a true delight, full of personality. She was ready to go, go, go! Everyone at camp loved watching her facial expressions, as they communicated all she was thinking. Her must-watch camp video spotlights her sunny disposition and the exuberance she felt at camp. Darcy loved riding the bus, shopping, exploring, and eating.
Darcy was born with a spinal meningocele, which has been surgically removed, but she now has paralysis in her lower limbs. She is able to zip her wheelchair here and there and makes sure she puts herself in the middle of the action.
She is said to be able to enjoy herself and that is absolutely true. She will find enjoyment in all that is going on around her. Darcy will be a gift to her family, but she desperately needs to find one so that she can share her joy not just with her family, but with the world! Darcy is newly listed with Madison Adoption Associates. Do watch her video and help us find this waiting gem a forever family!
