Much To Be Grateful For
By Mark Flippo
Didier became known as "Turtle Boy" because of an 11-pound mole he had grown around his torso which resembled the shell of a turtle. Doctors diagnosed him as having congenital melanocytic nevus, a rare mole condition. Their concerns that the mole might be malignant were laid to rest. Even better for the young boy, doctors determined they would be able to surgically remove the mole. Months later, the cameras were on hand as Didier got his first look at his new body. He was understandably speechless at his normally shaped torso. But perhaps even more exciting, it wasn't much later that he was headed off to his first day of school!
Sometimes we feel like we have endured a lot. My outlook on life can change when I look through the eyes of another! We have all been picked on growing up. After seeing these photos can you imagine the bullying this child suffered! Kids can be very cruel. Since surgery little Didier can finally learn and play with other children. God has been merciful to us.
