'I understand that gossip sells papers, but I am dissapointed because it discourages others from doing the same thing. The media is doing a great disservice to all the orphans in Africa by turning it into a negative thing. I beg them to go to Africa and see what I saw. It's a state of emergency. Anyone who went there would want to bring one of those children home and give them a chance to have a future and better life.' (About the adoption of her son, David)
