An Unusual Journey
In an effort to support and protect their children, parents go above and beyond. British mother Celine Casey did something extraordinary for her daughter Vienna Brookshaw. Vienna was born in April 2021, and on her forehead, in the space between her eyebrows, she had a birthmark.
The birthmark, congenital melanocytic nevus (CMN), did not cause any health problems, but Casey was worried about how Vienna’s birthmark would affect her emotionally as she grew older.
Vienna’s incredibly caring mother, Casey, said, “We cherish every moment of Vienna’s journey and eagerly await the day she can express her own thoughts.” With or without a birthmark, we would always and forever love her.
The Need to Acknowledge
Vienna’s birthmark inspired Casey to have it removed because her baby appeared uneasy when people stared at her. Vienna became even more adamant about pursuing the removal because she was treated differently than other babies.
