This Story Of A Couple Accepting A Neglected Orphan Girl Will Bring Tears To Your Eyes

Bernie and Diane had a large family of five boys, but they always wanted a girl. They thought over and decided that they wished to adopt a child. Reason?
As Diane puts it, “The most beautiful thing about adoption is a child getting a second shot at life.”
When the couple reached the adoption centre, Diane’s eyes stuck on a pinned up picture on the board. It was a black and white picture of a little girl with dark eyes. The authorities insisted them to consider some other options, but Diane was convinced that the dark-eyed girl was meant to be their daughter.
The more they pushed the adoption guys, the more they caved, until finally they revealed that something was not right with the girl.
The girl with dark eyes was called Danielle. She was a victim of horrific child abuse and neglect. She used to live with her mother.
“When Detective Holste found her, she was seven years old. Danielle weighed 46 pounds. She couldn’t talk, respond to others or eat solid food.”
“Based on what the neighbours told us, she never stepped outside. They saw her looking out the broken window. I’ve been a detective for 27 years, and this is by far the worst case of child neglect in my career,” said Mark Detective Holste.
He added, “We were dispatched to this location. The house was full of animal feces; there were tens of thousands of cockroaches crunching under our feet as we walked inside the house.”
