What could be more beautiful than pregnancy? However, pregnancy can be stressful because parents think that all they want for their baby is to be healthy. A young couple was expecting their first child to be born. They already knew they would call him Brody. Unfortunately, the ultrasound told them that there were complications and that maybe it would be better to have an abo rtion.
The parents, Sara and Chris, found out that the baby had a bilateral cleft lip and palate, and this could cause him health problems. However, the two did not consider the option of aborting. His parents have decided that they want Brody to be born, and they will help him get over any problems and be with him. They also decided that they would help other parents to realize that a child is a blessing and that they should be proud of their child regardless of the situation.
Fortunately, Brody’s condition didn’t require extra care. Cleft lips and palates can make everyday life difficult, as it can be more difficult to eat, drink or even breathe. At the moment, doctors do not know the exact cause of cleft lips and palates. According to enters for Disease Control and Prevention, in the United States about 2600-2700 children are born annually with a cleft lip and 4450 children are born with cleft lip with or without the cleft palate.
Several people wrote to Sarah to laugh at her baby, but the mother was very strong and used all these messages to show other parents who are facing similar problems that everything is fine and everything will be fine. We must not listen to what bad people say. Sara said that she is not affected by the malicious messages and that this is how Brody wants her to be. She wants her son to help the children who are facing the same problem as him and to show them that everything will be fine!
Although Sara received many negative messages, she also received a lot of encouragement and kindness from people. The mother also said that one day she was in a restaurant and a man offered her $ 1,000 to help Brody. Brody’s parents set aside some money to help their son get the operation he needed.
Fortunately, Brody managed to have operation, and now he is fully recovered! The parents think that maybe Brody will need other operation, but so far they are very satisfied with the results obtained. Sara and Chris said they received a lot of support from the cleft community. Many people prayed for Brody and his health.
