Although it pains us to admit it, it is a reality that many biological parents do not accept their child born with a disability. Indeed, some parents make the decision to leave the child in an orphanage.
Fortunately, there are people who dream of being parents and who know that all children are wonderful, as evidenced by the story of this man who adopted a girl with Down syndrome abandoned by her parents. Discover their story with us.
Luca, the guardian angel of a little girl rejected for trisomy 21
Alba, a girl born with Down syndrome, was placed in a foster home days following she was born. Her parents were unwilling to take care of all her care.
Organization officials then sought a family for Alba. During this search, 20 adoptive families refused to receive her.

Alba’s future was very uncertain. Fortunately, Luca, a man who had wanted to adopt a child for a long time, found out regarding the little girl’s situation and came to her rescue.
Despite his good intentions, management has not been easy, and this, because Italian laws do not allow adoption to homosexual and single people. So he had to fight for approval.
The only way for him to see the doors of adoption open to him was if he became the parent of a severely disabled person. He immediately accepted.
From the start, he saw Alba with eyes of love and felt that she was his ideal complement.
The life of Luca and Alba
From the moment the little girl arrived at Luca’s, he covered all her needs in the best way and made her feel loved. Alba thus enjoys a happy education and optimal development.
Moreover, she became the most important priority for her father. So much so that he has always told the media that his life revolves around her and the only thing that matters to him is collecting countless unforgettable moments by his side.
Father and daughter have become inseparable and spend their time having a lot of adventures. They love to travel, play, learn together and celebrate any special dates.
Alba is now 4 years old, and together they love to sing and dance. Luca claims that his daughter has a magnificent talent for carrying out both actions.
Its main objective is to have its abilities recognized by society. He wants society to see her as capable of fulfilling all of her goals and to listen to her very carefully.

The mission for which Luca is committed
Alba’s father aims to fight once morest exclusion and put an end to the misconception that people with disabilities cannot do anything.
He wrote a book in which he highlights the story of 3 children who succeeded in transforming their handicap into marvelous gifts.
The goal is that the people who will read it understand that all mental barriers must disappear. It’s time to value diversity.
But his message does not stop there, since he also took advantage of his story to invite people to resort to adoption. He says it’s one of the best decisions of his life, because it can positively change the life of a child who needs it.
