The Girl Born Without A Nose | BORN DIFFERENT

SUBSCRIBE to Truly: bit.ly/Oc61Hj
A LITTLE girl born without a nose due to an ultra-rare genetic condition is due to have a brand new, 3D-printed nose implant fitted. Tessa Evans, 8, from County Derry, N. Ireland, is one of only 100 people in the world with Bosma arhinia microphthalmia (BAM) syndrome. When she was two, Tessa was the first person in the world to have a nasal implant made using 3D technology. At age four a larger nasal implant was fitted, but that subsequently had to be removed after becoming infected. Now Tessa’s medical team, led by Dr Juling Ong, at Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children in London, are planning to insert a new implant next year and young Tessa can’t help but be thrilled at the thought of finally having a nose. She said: “I can’t wait for my new nose, it’s going to make me really happy.”

Tessa is absolutely beautiful without the nose and with the nose. I love her character, not only she's an inspiration for many, she's also a very genuine girl.

[@epresley8324]

Beautifully said!

[@leonardsamboma3753]

Thank you that was very inspiring for people without a nose

[@bbt4461]

Isn’t it so ironic that many people want a smaller nose and don’t realise how lucky they are to even have one. I hope this little ray of sunshine’s dreams all comes true ❤️❤️❤️

[@brittanypanda9348]

That is a very good point!

[@eautifuleagle4776]

Right! People who say they want a smaller nose, bigger whatever, longer hair, smaller feet, they should be grateful for their insecurities. Some people have no feet, this girl has no nose, some people can't grow hair at all. I'm insecure about some things but some of them went away since I realized how blessed I was to be alive and be born with no disabilities (and before you guys come at me I'm not saying there's something wrong with having a disability). Just remember that the things you're insecure about someone out there wishes they had it.

Just realizing this is already great. You'd have no idea how many people complain daily about very trivial things, and if you try to remind them that people around the world suffer much more, they would then get even more upset because you try to steer the topic away from their egos.

[@jasperrosa1369]

I love how the parents teach her she looks beautiful without a nose and with a nose because (not that she's insecure about not having a nose but still) when you're insecure about a certain feature and want to change it you have to love yourself WITH that insecurity before you can love yourself without it. Which is why you see a lot of human barbies they didn't love their insecurities before thus finding more problems

[@angelikaweienberger-peters9230]

So true, but society doesn' t make it easy in you. And we are social beings, being dependent on their appreciation.
