A Special Adoption

An American Mom Adopts a Special Chinese Son
A Chinese orphan too old to be adopted, an American mom too determined to let go. They finally got together in the U.S. But life takes surprising turns. For producer Roger Hsu, Elaine Lu tells the story of Emmy and Xiaofu.

The story began when Emmy was helping a friend adopt a baby girl from China.

Emmy and Xiaofu met at an orphanage. Abandoned by his parents, Xiaofu grew up in an orphanage in an eastern province of China. A victim of polio, Xiaofu has the use of only one arm and one leg. He worked hard and became a typist at the very orphanage he grew up in.
