Local family raises money to adopt sick child from Bulgaria

One year ago Andy and Lindsay Thomas and their three kids found 6-year-old Gavin through an adoption agency. He lives in an orphanage in Bulgaria and is in desperate need of medical care. He has stage four renal failure.

"We have appointments set up for him as soon as we get home." Lindsay said.

But even before expensive medical costs, the adoption alone cost $28,000, which the Thomas's didn't have up front.

Through a story with KSL last July, and other advertising, complete strangers started donating money and they were able to raise $13,000 towards the adoption.

"We couldn't have done it without that money," Lindsay said.

They have never even spoken to Gavin before, but in just over ten hours, Andy and Lindsay Thomas will fly to Bulgaria.

He's now officially our child. We just have to go and make the trip and bring him home.
–Lindsay Thomas

"He's now officially our child. We just have to go and make the trip and bring him home," Lindsay said.

The couple leaves Thursday morning to meet their son for the very first time.

"She's going to cry and I'm going to be videotaping her crying," Andy said.

Their three kids will wait at home for their new brother.

"This is his bed. This is my bed," said Bradley Thomas. "We are going to be sharing."

Presents from Santa and a pillow with his new last name will also be there for his welcome home. The Thomas's wait in anticipation to finally hold the newest member of their family.

The family will be back in Salt Lake with Gavin on the 12th.

The answer is (sadly) negative today. The facts signaled here will make even get closer to the way the former communist regime in Romania was dealing with these issues…

Interview met Edith Nieman – correspondent Colombia

Een moeder wil altijd gevonden worden

Edith is al tien jaar onze correspondent in Colombia. Inmiddels is ze getuige geweest van zo’n honderd ontmoetingen. Daarnaast heeft ze dertig jaar voor de organisatie Wereldkinderen gewerkt. Deze organisatie houdt zich bezig met het zoeken van kinderen voor Nederlandse ouders. Sinds 2004 doet ze hetzelfde alleen nu voor een Amerikaanse instantie en dus voor Amerikaanse ouders.

Hoe ben je ooit correspondent voor Spoorloos geworden?

Via een kennis kwam ik in contact met Spoorloos. Spoorloos was in Colombia op zoek naar de moeder van een kind. Ik heb haar geholpen de moeder te vinden. Mijn hulp bestaat uit het vertalen en het helpen de weg te vinden naar de plaatselijke instanties. In de loop der tijd heb ik een heel eigen netwerk opgebouwd met mensen waarop ik kan bouwen.
