God bless this family! With already 2 kids in their home, they didn't have to adopt an orphan. More importantly, they didn't have to adopt a baby with so many complications. Yet, they went ahead only because they felt a true connection. I am sure Tanvi will get the best parental care that she originally didn't get :-)

Why you guys always write like, they don’t have to adopt when they have 2 kids. And adopting a baby with complications is what wrong. Rich People is India don’t care for adoption. They want all wealth going to their own family if they don’t have kids. You can also adopt. Tell your friends and family to adopt. Thanks
