Synopsis

When a child is born with a facial difference, parents can be over-whelmed by their feelings and fears about their child's condition and appearance. Now, families can turn to this book for the information and support they need to understand and cope with the many challenges -- medical, emotional, social, educational, legal and financial -- presented by facial difference. Written by a mother of a child with facial difference in collaboration with a distinguished professional advisory board, this book covers more commonly occurring conditions such as cleft lip/or cleft palate, plus rare and more severe forms of facial difference including hemifacial microsomia, and Apert, Crouzon, and Treacher Collins syndromes.
