Fundraiser for Abandoned Baby Noel

We reported on Baby Noel a few weeks ago.  This was the baby that was found abandoned in a box in Philadelphia. Well, one wonderful woman, Keisha Browning, decided to get her friends together and throw a baby shower for the infant.  This way, she could get many items that are necessary for taking care […]

Baby Abandoned at Walgreens

Today’s story is a head-scratcher. Illinois police were alerted to a baby that had been abandoned in a Walgreens shopping cart.  The baby was fine, thankfully.  Even stranger, the mother reported from across the street from the Walgreens that the child was kidnapped.  Employees assured police that she had brought the child in, spoken to […]

Maisy Gets a Happy Ending

Finally!  I have a good story to report! We reported on the little girl Maisy quite a while ago.  She was abandoned in China due to the mark on her face, but was quickly adopted by an Oklahoma couple. The little girl is now 3-years-old and has had several surgeries to correct the mark or […]

Pennsylvania Baby Needs Help!

Baby Abandoned with Babysitter

Wow.  I have never heard a story quite like this.

Baby Saved by Safe Haven in Indiana

Another baby was saved under Safe Haven in Indiana recently. This article is short and sweet, but still worth the read.  A baby was dropped off at a Bedford hospital with no complications.  What was sad was that I learned why Indiana approved Safe Haven in the state 10 years ago.  A baby was placed […]

Wisconsin to Expand Safe Haven

Representatives in Wisconsin are seeking to expand Safe Haven laws in the state. The new legislation would increase the age limit for dropping off newborns from 3 days to 30 days.  I can see no real reason why there are states that have such a small window for Safe Haven protection.  Any child older than […]

Backyard Abandonment

This is just not a good month for the babies of this country. Yet another newborn was found abandoned in someone’s backyard and there is currently no evidence to suggest who put the child there.  The umbilical cord had been cut with a serrated knife and had a low birth weight.  Otherwise, the child was […]

3 Year Anniversary for Abandoned Infant

A baby boy was honored in Horry County recently.  He died more than 3 years ago, but residents hope the memorial service will remind everyone that Safe Haven laws still exist and there is no excuse for what happened to the boy.  They also hope the service will somehow trigger a detail in someone’s mind […]

Kesia Lenetta Watson: Another Abandoned Infant

Today’s article is rather short, but definitely worth reporting. Another baby was found abandoned in Prichard.  The baby was placed on a porch by the mother, Kesia Lenetta Watson, 33.  She has been arrested, but police are still investigating the incident.  The article makes no mention of the welfare of the child.  This makes me […]
