Finding Chika: A Little Girl, an Earthquake, and the Making of a Family By Mitch Albom

Chika Jeune’s story begins in the wake of tragedy. Born just three days before the devastating 2010 earthquake that ravaged Haiti, she spent her infancy surrounded by unimaginable poverty. The loss of her mother during childbirth compounded the tragedy, leaving Chika orphaned and vulnerable. She found solace and care at The Have Faith Haiti Orphanage in Port Au Prince, an orphanage run by Mitch Albom and his wife, Janine.

The orphanage, home to over forty children, had become a second family to Mitch and Janine, a couple without children of their own. Chika, a beacon of resilience and spirit, quickly made her presence felt. Even at the tender age of three, her bravery and confidence shone through, captivating both the children and the staff.

However, at age five, a devastating diagnosis threatened to shatter Chika’s world. The words of the doctor echoed with a chilling finality: “No one in Haiti can help you with this.” Determined to exhaust every possible avenue for their beloved Chika, Mitch and Janine made the difficult decision to bring her to Detroit, clinging to the hope that advanced American medical care could offer a solution and a swift return to her homeland.

What began as a quest for medical treatment blossomed into an unbreakable bond. Chika’s infectious optimism and playful humor wove their way into the very fabric of Mitch and Janine’s lives. Their home became her sanctuary, and she, a cherished member of their family. The journey for a cure transformed into a two-year, globe-spanning odyssey, a testament to their unwavering commitment to their daughter.

Through Chika’s eyes, Mitch discovered the profound joys and unconditional love found in caring for a child. He learned that family transcended the boundaries of blood, that it was a tapestry woven with threads of love, resilience, and shared experiences. Finding Chika, narrated retrospectively and interwoven with poignant conversations with Chika herself, reveals Albom at his most vulnerable and emotionally resonant.

This is more than just a memoir; it’s a celebration of Chika’s indomitable spirit, the unwavering love of her adoptive parents, and the extraordinary bond they forged. Finding Chika is a poignant and profoundly moving testament to the enduring power of love and the true meaning of family, reminding us that sometimes, the greatest gifts in life come from the most unexpected places.
