Thank you, thank you, thank you for this segment. I myself and my son have bilateral cleft lip and palate. It is the number one birth defect in Utah and a lot of people don't know anything about it. The whole cranio facial team at Primary Childrens Hospital are miracle workers. It is so emotional to have a child with a genetic birth defect, i know i felt like the worst mother in the world for doing this to my son. Everyone focuses on the post-operative results, but it is so hard to see your beautifel baby that you have fallen in love with, that beautiful face and mouth, change. Your baby leaves your arms perfect in your eyes, and they return to you different. It is an emotion that i hope i don't have to feel again. I love my little guy and he is so brave and so strong. AT 18 months, he is my little hero!!! I also have a new love for my own mom and what she went through when i was born 27 years ago, when this was even more uncommon. Thank you Alicia for sharing your beautiful sons and your story. I couldn't help but cry. --Thanks Kati and Carter

I think it was great that you guys talked about Cleft Lip and Palate on your show today! I have a 10 year old niece that was born with Cleft Lip and Palate, Dr. Morales is also one of her doctors, I've heard great things about him. My niece also went through speech therapy and she talks perfectly now, & she is one of the most beautifull, sweet girls ever!! Thank you for bringing this to peoples attention!!
