Mom Is Shocked By Newborn's Face, But He Truly Perseveres
About 44 years ago, an Australian mother of four healthy children gave birth to her fifth child. But this baby looked much different than the rest.
Robert Hoge was born with severe deformities. He had a giant tumor the size of a tennis ball right between his eyes. And his legs were also deformed that doctors had no choice but to amputate them.
In the days following his birth, Robert’s mother was so shocked by her newborn’s face that she refused to see him for a whole week. She didn’t want to take him home.
In fact, she was so horrified that at one point she said she wished he would die. “He is so ugly,” she told her sister.
For several complicated reasons, Robert’s mother genuinely struggled with her son’s deformities, and she was incredibly open about said struggle.
But before you judge, you should know that Robert’s mother is not a villain in his life’s story.
Everything changed for Robert and his mother after a pivotal family meeting. Wait until you meet this incredible man today, at 44 years old, and hear how his mom impacted his life in such a surprising and unexpected way.
