ACTIVE AND PLAYFUL .
He looks thoughtful.. He looks impish. He looks ador-
able. And Jeff's personality lives up to his picture and to
those adjectives because he is a lovely baby.-
Jeff is 22 months old, a sturdy young fellow -with-blue eyes,
blonde hair and fair skin. HiS general health is' good, -but he
has a condition called Osteogenesis Imperfecta, which means
brittle bones. So he, is quite likely to-have an arm or a leg
in a cast and will continue that way' unless `some 'new' med-
ical treatment is discovered. ,
You would think the cOndition :would almost immobilize
him, but nothing of the' sort. He is very, active, he loves to
play on 'the floor with other children, and wearing a cast,does
hot bother him at all.
Because of many broken bones Jeff is physically behind
the average child his age-for instance he is just not -standing
with support - but mentally he' is considered average or per-
haps above.
Jeff is happy, jolly, good-natured, very observant and
alert. He has a delightful infectious laugh. He loves tele-
vision, obviously enjoying the movement and color. He can
occupy himself with picture books for long periods, turning the pages himself.
This lovable youngster needs a, family who have easy ac-cess to , a hospital because he will continue 'to have broken
bones. His parents will need to be able to treat him so far
as possible as a normal child, helping him to accept the fact
there will be things he can't do, while helping him develop
the things he can,
To inquire about adopting Jeff, please write to Today's
Child, Box 888, Station K, Toronto M4P 2H2. For general
adoption information, please contact your local Children's
Aid Society. "
