Eka has been in the foster system since they were a toddler.They have been in and out of many households but have yet to find one who fully accepts them for who they are.They felt forced to change themselves to fit in with straight, white families and friends.They shaved their hair recently because of permanent damage from straightening it everyday.Thanks to the the Dyer-Smith's,Eka feels comforatble with their skin color and their gender for the first time in their life. #bumpkinwillowcreek
