Russian rejection

There is a little boy in Russia who's adoption is being denied because he has Down Syndrome. Apparently this type of "defect" is socially unacceptable and he was the first one to go through the adoption process just to have his future parents' rejected in court on the sole basis of his condition. The judge believes he is better off in an institution and told the parents they could chose any other "typical" child and that their home met all of Russia's qualifications, however, the little boy they loved did not.

As I read this post, tears came to my eyes. My heart ached for this poor child and the parents who want so badly to care for him.  Please pray for Krilill to come home!
