Jim Caviezel
Jim Caviezel, best known his starring role in Person of Interest and for his portrayal of Jesus in The Passion of the Christ, and his wife, Kerri, have adopted three children from China who had cancer. The actor told an interview of his children Bo, now 18, Lyn, 16, and David, 7: "Two of them had brain tumors and one had cancer sarcoma. Their chance of survival wasn't great, but I wanted to help…They make me want to be a better man. Love is a decision." He has become a passionate advocate of adoption. "I always thought if I adopted that I wouldn't have the same feeling [as I would] if they were genetically my own children. Nothing could be further from the truth."
When Caviezel met Bo for the first time in that Chinese orphanage, he knew that adopting Bo meant a life of doctors and surgery, and at the same time anxiety and heartache. After that, Caviezel and his wife, Kerri, decided to adopt another child, a healthy newborn baby girl. However, before the adoption took place, they met a five-year-old girl who also had a brain tumor. “The couple say they know the healthy baby will find a good home.” Jim Caviezel also feels himself completely changed since having a baby, he probably feels happy being a father. And from here, everyone can know the famous Jim Caviezel adoption.
