Describes what being a foster mom is really like, the effects of foster care on the whole family, and how the foster care system fails severely abused children.
Foster children are society?s throwaway kids, the children no one wants?until someone finally does. Saving Michael provides an inside look into Keri Vellis? struggle to secure the best possible services for two severely abused and traumatized siblings. Some doors opened, but too many closed during her ten-year journey as the voice for children in her care who have no voice of their own within the current system. Readers get a glimpse of Keri and her family?s day-to-day life as she went from mother of three to adoptive mother of three more children and then the temporary caregiver of another seventeen.
Saving Michael delves into issues bigger than one family?s experiences and determination. Now an author and child advocate, Vellis provides a profoundly personal look into what it takes to get the best for each of the children she?s had in her care. H
