A Father for Brixton


At just one month old, Brixton came into foster care severely malnourished and neglected. He was placed in the home of Anthony. 


“I remember the pediatrician commenting during his first visit how emaciated he was,” Anthony said. “He just hadn’t been receiving the love and care that he needed and that’s why he was placed with me.”  


Anthony had never been a parent before, but he instantly fell in love with Brixton and began to pour into him the love he needed. Under Anthony’s care, Brixton thrived and the two formed a special bond that is apparent to anyone who meets the duo. 


Almost two years later, Brixton was adopted by Anthony. 



“He is incredible,” Anthony said. “He is my mini-me. He is my son. It’s a little surreal to think about sometimes.”
