Wednesday's Child: Cami
By Larry Kane
PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- Seventeen-year-old Cami has a smile that can light up a room, and her social workers, Amber Patti and Julie Shermer, say she's a joy to be around.
(Patti:) "Cami is just a fun, bubbly, sweet young lady. She just has that personality that, when you see her, you know you're going to have a great time."
(Shermer:) "She's always positive, which I think is a great asset to her."
She's learning to cook in school.
"Last week, we did pizza," she says. "It was hot pizza. I had pepperoni and cheese."
And she's learning job skills while working at a Goodwill Thrift Shop.
Cami walks with braces and crutches, but that's not standing in her way.
Her social workers say she needs a committed forever family -- one that's willing to stay in contact with Cami's adoptive sister.
