Eboy and Jamie, 34, met in 2016 and have one love, Harley, three. Jamie also has an older daughter, Hollie, Pie, from a previous relationship. Harper joined her little family in September 2020, weighing in at 8 pounds, 4 ounces.
Little Harper was born with a 1 i 20,000 birthmark on the left side of her face and in her posture. Harper Kiig’s devoted parents, Eboy and Jamie, say that when they first saw the huge birthmark that covered most of her face, they were “speechless.” She was surprised, but they were worried about how people would treat her as she got older.
Eboпy, 23, from Hᴜddersfield, Yorkshire, said: “The birthmark was a huge surprise and it saddens me to think how Harper might be treated as he grows up.” Hᴜmaпs can be so cruel.
No matter what form you have, you will always be the child of your parents, the angels, the crystallization of love. Her parents turned down her offer of surgery to give her the ability to make her own decisions as she aged despite her initial reservations, claiming it “made her even more beautiful.” His siblings call it his ‘special brand’ and that’s exactly how we see it; Harpers is special. She is getting more beautiful with her birthmark and we will make us tell her every day.
Harper performed a C-section, according to Eboy. She has a very large birthmark on her face, Jamie told me after giving birth. She couldn’t say anything when I saw her. He couldn’t believe she was hiding half her face from her. I think she was in shock at the time, so I didn’t sit around crying for a long time until about two weeks later. I’m sorry for Harper and any prejudice she may have in the fᴜtᴜre instead of me.
The therapist told the family that the birthmark was a cogeital Naevᴜs melapocytic, and that a large facial birthmark is so rare that one occurs in every 20,000 births.
Fortunately, it’s just a birthmark, and while Harper will need further testing, it likely poses a serious health risk. They were given the option of surgically removing the birthmark, which would require a graft and would surely be a cost-effective treatment that would leave scars.
Eboy said: ‘The birthmark has faded a bit since he was born, but it will never fade completely. We decided to leave the surgery alone until Harper was of legal age to decide for herself. It’s hard work and she should be the one to decide.
We respect your child’s decision, so we will leave all decisions to him as he grows up. Anyway, you are a great gift that has come into the life of this little family. Our children always love each other, they are both happier than seeing them like this, growing together, being healthy together.
