FEBRUARY 22, 1978 TERRACE BAY NEWS PAGE 21 TODAY'S CHILD BY HELEN ALLEN m0 a SR HE TORONTO S1JN] SYNDICATE One look at that happy smile and you know Wally's per- sonality. His foster parents find this lovable, affectionate two-year-old a joy to live with. : Anglo-Saxon and Italian in descent, Wally has blonde hair, blue eyes and fair skin. His development is below normal because he was born with Downs Syndrome, commonly called mongolism. As is the case with many Downs children, he is subject to chest problems and has recently had pneumonia. He also has a minor heart defect but requires no treatment or medication. Wally is more advanced than many children with his condition. He can walk around the furniture. He has a fair- sized vocabulary of single words. He feeds himself, begin- ning to use a spoon and a cup. He knows what to do with crayons. He likes to play ball by rolling it across the floor. Wally needs a mother and father who will value his sunny disposition and will enjoy helping him progress as far as he is able. Older brothers and sisters will be an asset in his adopting family. : To inquire about adopting Wally, please write to Today's Child, Ministry of Community & Social Services, Box 888, Station K, Toronto M4P 2H2. In your letter tell something of your present family and your way of life.
