Foster baby is adopted 7 years after apartment fire left him with horrific burns

As a baby, Deyvion was rescued from a tragic apartment fire that left him with serious facial burns. He fought through months of recovery in a specialized burn unit—completely alone, without family by his side. Despite everything, he survived and kept going.

When he was five, his life changed forever. Beth Plunkett, a loving single mother of two, met him and instantly felt a connection. “I thought he was a beautiful little boy,” she said. After nearly seven years in foster care, Beth officially adopted Deyvion, giving him the forever family he had always deserved.

The firefighters who saved his life never forgot him. On adoption day, they surprised him with a special jacket and hat and even drove him and Beth to court in a fire truck to celebrate this emotional moment.

Today, Deyvion is surrounded by love, strength, and hope. His story is a powerful reminder that kindness, resilience, and family can change everything. ❤️
