Its amazing how simple operations to cure things that would otherwise be life-long disabilities - like this, ear-canal blockages that cause deafness, cleft-lip, etc... can change a child’s life. Thank God!

Worthwhile surgery to correct a deformation. Unlike sex “change” surgery. One’s sex is NOT a birth defect!

I once heard a southern comedian telling a story about a feller he knew, who was so bow-legged he couldn’t corner a hog in a ditch.

Bo Diddley was someone that some kids used to see in their neighborhood, walking around.

When those kids went in the studio Leonard Chess told them change the lyrics in a song they were working on. Billy Boy Arnold suggested the name Bo Diddley. When the record came out they were surprised to see that as the name of the artist as well.

The reality of her condition was worse than I had envisioned. So glad that she now has a chance to live a much more normal life. May she find happiness and success.

The surgery didn’t give her her life back.

It gave her her life!
