Meili's Story

Let's meet Meili, a resilient five-year-old girl who experienced abandonment and entered institutional care as a new-born. At the age of two, she was placed with a loving foster family. However, Meili faced significant challenges. She displayed impulsive behaviour and often had intense tantrums. Additionally, she struggled with recognizing her own hunger and thirst, even after consuming an entire bottle of water.

Meili showed little interest in toys and didn't seek comfort or assistance when she was distressed. At times, she resorted to banging her head against the wall as a way to cope. Thankfully, her devoted foster mother recognized the importance of being attentive and responsive to Meili's signals. She provided constant support and comfort, always by Meili's side.

With love and nurturing care, Meili slowly began to thrive within the family. She learned to regulate her eating habits, experiencing fewer and fewer tantrums as time went on. Additionally, she developed positive relationships with other children in kindergarten, displaying her newfound ability to get along well with her peers.

When asked how she would handle distressing situations, Meili confidently responded, “I would go to my mum”, demonstrating the unwavering bond she shares with her foster mother. Through the consistent love and support she receives, Meili has grown into a resilient and thriving young girl.

Meili's story showcases the transformative power of a dedicated foster family and the unwavering commitment of her foster mother. Their love and presence have enabled Meili to overcome significant challenges, empowering her to find comfort, stability, and a sense of belonging within her family.
