Jessica and Adam Davis is an affectionate couple from Ohio. They already had four children of their own when they decided that they wanted to adopt a child. The couple adopted a little girl from Uganda and they were delighted when they welcomed 6-year-old Namata into their home.
Though, it wasn’t long before Namata’s English enriched and she began telling the couple stories about her mother and home back in Uganda. And what she said shocked her adoptive parents.
The couple did their investigation and went through the extensive and costly procedure of adopting internationally. They wanted to make sure that their adoption was completely above board. They paid USD $65 000 and went through loads of paperwork and a year of procedures to complete the course. Lastly, they were able to welcome 6 year old Namata to her new home.
They adopted Namata from Uganda, which the couple had read is the country with the maximum need of adoptive parents. The couple were told that Namata’s father was dead and that her mother had abandoned the little girl, failing to nurture the child or afford adequate food and care.
Namata, who the family called Mata, fit right into her new family, playing happily with her new siblings and picking up English speedily. Though, as her English enhanced, Mata told her adoptive parents some stories that just didn’t appropriate with the facts they’d been given about her past in Uganda.
Jessica said that she came to understand that Mata was telling her rather massively dissimilar and more significant. Mata told Jessica that her mother was a good mom, who walked her to school every day and took good care of her. Not a single detail in her adoption papers about the abandonment and exploitation she’d suffered was true.
Adam said that the only shock this child ever experienced was because they basically placed an order for a child. He further said that Namata was home and happy with her mother until they selected her for the couple.
When Jessica and Adam had visited Namata in Uganda just before adopting her, she had been in an orphanage with no toys and with bars on the windows. However, her mother was in their village four hours away, trusting that her daughter had been sent away for the time being for school.
Local traffickers had moved in a church in Namata’s village and come up to her mother about a prospect for Namata’s to get an education in America for two years. Her mother supposed that Namata would be returned to her and had no clue that she was passing away her parental rights.
When Jessica and Adam learned what had transpired, they contacted an association called Reunite Uganda. They found Namata’s real mother in Uganda and were able to arrange a video call between Namata and her mother. Not long after, they reunified Namata with her mother in Uganda.
Jessica and Adam are actually unbelievable people for making this right and reunifying Namata with her mother.
