She was born without a jaw and mouth, her relatives gave her up because they couldn’t look at her, and this is what she is today: Everyone is amazed by the change and the skills of the doctors – Photos in the first comment.y

Her mother Elena fainted when she first saw her in the incubator, and for years her daughter was the subject of ridicule and disparaging comments.

The girl was never officially diagnosed, but it is believed that the facial malformation is the result of the rare Nager syndrome. All this made her daily life extremely difficult. Because of the deformity, she could not speak, she could not feed herself. Her parents had to completely change their lives in order to devote themselves entirely to her, to raise her, educate her and keep her alive – because, unfortunately, she could hardly do anything on her own. Fortunately, fate smiled on them, allowing Darina to smile too.

However, until five years ago, the future of Elena and Yuri, as the girl’s father is called, did not seem so cheerful and smiling.
