无眼婴儿母亲Lacey Buchanan:我用对孩子的爱直面生活!
A mother whose son was born with a rare form of cleft palate that left him with no eyes has made an inspiring video revealing their struggles - and how the baby boy battled their bullies with his laughter.
一位母亲为她患先天腭裂伴双盲的孩子制作了一段视频,展示了他们是如何互相扶持着面对困难和外界的嘲讽,一起走下去的。
In the YouTube video, Lacey Buchanan, from Woodbury, Tennessee, holds up cards describing her excitement at falling pregnant with son Christian, and the fears and snide comments that followed.
在这段视频中,来自美国田纳西州Woodbury市的孩子母亲Lacey Buchanan,她手持卡片,讲述了自己从最初得知怀孕后的狂喜,以及随后而来的恐惧和旁人的嘲讽。
During the seven-minute film, she holds one-year-old Christian into her chest, only revealing his face to the camera at end of the video as she kisses him and shows him off proudly.
在这段7分钟的视频中,她怀中紧紧抱着一岁大的克里斯汀,仅在视频的结尾骄傲地举起爱子,向大家展露了他的脸庞并亲吻了他。
The inspiring video tells the story of Lacey, who met her husband Chris when they were 15, and went on to marry him when they were 21. They fell pregnant when she was 23, one note card reads. But a week after the discovery, doctors called the couple to say something was wrong: it appeared that their unborn child had developmental problems.
视频讲述了她的故事:Lacey在15岁时遇到了Chris,21岁时与他结婚,并在23岁时怀上了小克里斯汀。但在发现怀孕后一周,医生给夫妇打了个电话,告诉他们一个坏消息:他们的孩子可能有先天性疾病。
When she went to Vanderbilt Medical Center to deliver Christian in February 2011, she did not know if he would live. He survived - yet his condition was much worse than doctors had predicted.
2011年2月,Lacey前往范德堡医学中心准备分娩时,她并不清楚孩子是否能存活。分娩成功后,医生们发现,克里斯汀的实际状况比预想得更为糟糕。
The baby boy suffered from Tessier cleft, a rare and severe cleft palate that can affect different areas of the face - such as the nose, eyes and jaw - in addition to the mouth. Christian had no palate, was unable to shut his mouth and was born without eyes.
小克里斯汀患有一种罕见严重的腭裂,能广泛影响脸部器官,如鼻、眼及下颚,还有嘴巴。他没有上颚,不能闭合嘴唇,也没有双目。
At four days old, he underwent his first surgery. Through a series of operations, doctors have closed his cleft lip but his palate will require more surgeries, his mother said. He spent four weeks in the neonatal intensive care unit at Vanderbilt Children's Hospital.
他在出生后第四天便接受了第一次手术。现在经过一系列的手术,他上颚的分裂部分已经闭合,但上颚仍需要接受更多手术治疗,母亲Lacey说道。他在范德堡医学中心的新生儿重症监护室里呆了足足一月。
