Cleft Trip Loving Touch
This year's #6 Top Ten photo
captured a special moment between LWB Board member Chris Ingoldsby and little
Emily, who had come to the cleft trip with three missing limbs, a cleft lip,
and a heart defect. Chris was working on
the next day’s surgery list and had set up his “office” right by Emily’s bed as
it gave him the opportunity to comfort her whenever possible. So many people fell in love with Emily on
that trip, and Chris has said she left a very special mark on his heart. We are so happy to report that Emily is
meeting her forever family before the end of 2012.
