Biography

Jamie is an adopted child. He was adopted by his great aunt at the age of 11 months old. He was placed under child protection before birth as his older brother was also under child protection .At birth Jamie was full-term. He had complications of being unable to suck and remained in hospital for 5 days prior to coming home. Jamie’s hands and arms were clenched tight into his chest with wrists bent downwards towards each other. Nothing had been picked up in hospital apart from being unable to suck. It had been noted by his parents that something was not right and seeking medical advice and treatment he was diagnosed with Parkinsonism dystonia.

Both boys were later taken away from the birth parents for neglect and placed with their great aunt as their birth parents could not cope with Jamie’s condition. Jamie is now 10 years old and although disabled is a well adjusted and happy young man and is able to go to a special needs school.
