Thank you for that. As the mom of a kiddo with cleft lip and palate, no family history, had prenatal care, and normal pregnancy, I still wonder why. I reread my pregnancy journals to find some sort of cause. (We were trying to conceive which is why I had journals). I’ve just come to accept that we likely will never know what caused it. People often ask me if we had a family history. And when he was a baby I often wondered if people thought I caused it because of something I did or didn’t do during pregnancy.

Thanks! He’s 9 now, super smart, and such a neat kid. I would not have wished for him to have to go through all the surgeries, but he’s such a trooper about it all. He’s definitely a special kiddo.

Great info. We are done with kids but I imagine it’ll be something he may want to explore someday. Thank you.

How has your has your experience changed throughout your service and different administrations? Is this a result of your growth/changes as a person (both physically and just with age and maturation), changes in administration, shifts in people’s opinions, or something else? In other words, how has it changed and what has affected that?
