Petersburg orphan with Down syndrome was adopted
The 16-year-old St. Petersburg orphan with Down syndrome was adopted by a resident of Zarechny in the Urals Tatyana Cherkasova. The journalist Alexander Garmazapova paid attention to this on her Facebook.
The girl’s new mother was an American Katrina Morriss, but this did not happen because of the so-called “ law of Dima Yakovlev ”, who forbade the adoption of Russian children by US citizens. Many Russian media wrote about this story - for example, Kommersant .
From the media, Tatyana Cherkasova learned about the failed adoption. After that, she contacted Katrina and found out in which institution the girl lives.
“We have an increase in the family. Meet Lera. At night they flew home from St. Petersburg. So far for a month, for a temporary stay, ”the woman said on her Facebook.
