Celebrating his sixth birthday this year, “FY” is known as a loving and shy boy around adults but is active when playing with other children. He is a caretaker of the other children in the orphanage and will save sweet treats so he can give them to the younger kids. He can also be found entertaining them. His favorite activity is to play outdoors in group settings. It is noted that “FY” likes to study: he’s able to complete addition and subtraction, recognize shapes, name the days of the week and can communicate his needs.
After receiving rehabilitation treatment, FY can go up and down stairs by himself as well as walk and run freely. A report from January indicates he has difficulty holding on to items with his hands.
