Witshy is a 12-year-old boy from Florida who is hoping to be adopted.

Witshy is a delightful boy. He has the brightest smile and can make a room light up with it! He has a form of Cerebral Palsy in which he requires the use of a wheelchair. He receives therapy everyday at school to help improve his small commands and motor skills. Witshy is unable to form words verbally however he does communicate through smiling, verbal cues crying and touch. He has been receiving physical and occupational therapy at his school where they applaud him for his progress in completing small commands and working towards lessening his use of his wheelchair. Witshy enjoys when people read to him and when he can hear music from toys, the radio or on television. Witshy appears happiest when people are just talking to him and seeing how he is doing. Witshy appears to be much more aware than previously believed as he responds more to verbal commands and he attempts to make more communication through his limited verbal abilities and body language. Witshy is adored by his caregiver and he demonstrates a genuine attachment to this caregiver. Witshy will need total care for the rest of his life, therefore he needs a family that is dedicated, strong, patient and possibly experienced in the medical field to assist with Witshy's medical needs. Witshy is unable to express what he would like in a family, but it is apparent that he enjoys people who are willing to read to him, talk to him and spend quality time with him in whatever capacity. Witshy can bring a great deal of love and satisfaction to a deserving family.
