what she wants. And the singer called it after his eldest foster
daughter — “Center for pediatric surgery and
intensive care mercy James.” Recall that in addition to 11-year-old mercy, Madonna
has three children: 11-year-old David and recently
adopted her 4-year-old twins, Esther and Stella.

Malawi eternally grateful for the happiness she gave me my
children. For me it is very important that they do not lose touch with their own
country. And I wanted to show them that the goodwill of people do
can make a difference in this world!” — said the singer.
