With todays surgery everything is possible

well, i think the kid gonna have 20 operations before its 5th birthay and the parents and surgeons gonna decide how the kid will look, if they keep it this way then the kid will never be accepted by society ... we say we are tolerant but when someone walks by that is slightly diffrent, certainly when in the face then we will all 'look' at the person ...

People overestimate the powers of modern medicine.
In fact, except for new anti rejection medication, microsurgery, imaging methods and some special materials nothing much has changed in the last 50 years.
It's still basicaly still a fine form of butchery, usualy involving massive dammage to bloodvessels and tissues.
Maybe with nanotechnology and using retroviruses these things can be resolved in a distant future. That's considering governements don't ban research in these areas due to religious or ethical conflicts.

From what i've seen of the skull, there's NO way they'll ever make that child look like the "standard" person. The amount of suffering this child will go through in life, both from all the operations, the physical discomfort and psychological trauma i can't even begine to imagine.

I have children myself.
With the current ways of detecting defects before birth i'm surprised they didn't see this months before birth.
Everyone if free in their opinions, even though and some countries don't give you a choice in actions, but i know which choice i would have made.
