When Bonnie Liltz first saw Courtney, it was love at first sight. She was smitten with the 2-year old who was in the state facility where she volunteered. “I just fell in love with her there,” said Liltz as she looked back to the time she decided to take this child who had been rejected twice. Why didn’t anyone want her?
That was because she was severely handicapped, but of course, the soon-to-be-mother was meant to be with her. She was meant to take care of Courtney.
It Came With A Price
Courtney was a child who had been rejected by her very own mother. Then when an adoptive family saw her, she was rejected as well. That was because she had health issues that required a lot of work from those who were responsible for her. She had seizures and she needed feeding tubes. Courtney had cerebral palsy and needed to use diapers. In fact, she would forever need someone to take care of her.
