Local Family Has Daughter Born Without a Face

By Jeannie Blaylock
First Coast News

JACKSONVILLE, FL -- When most parents have a baby, they spend months dreaming about what their bundle of joy will look like. Will she look like mom? Will he have dad's eyes? But for one local Navy family, the birth of their daughter didn't give them the answers to those questions. Their daughter was born without a face.

When Tammy was pregnant, she knew something was wrong. At worst, they thought maybe their baby had a cleft lip.

So Tammy, and her husband Tom, went to the hospital happy, until the birth.

"The nurse is like, 'We got her stable, we need to rush her upstairs,'" explains Tom, as he recalls every minute of that day. "And the nurse asked, 'Do you want your wife to see her now?'"

Tom says he thought to himself, "Before she gets the shock I did, let me take a picture so she's prepared."

Tammy hadn't seen her new baby yet, because she almost bled to death during delivery. Tammy would be okay, meanwhile, dad went to take pictures of his new daughter.

But no matter what, these new parents had a wish. "That if there was something wrong, she wouldn't be alone. We wanted to make sure she felt loved," said Tom, as he began to cry. "She squeezed my hand."

Little Juliana is missing 30 - 40 percent of the bones in her face.

"She has no upper jaw, no cheek bones, no eye sockets, and she's missing the corner of her ear," explains Tom.

Her birth defect is called Treacher Collins Syndrome. Doctors say it's the worst case they've ever seen.

So, how do you get people to see past all the defects, and find her heart? For mom, it just hurts.

"I just wish people would ask questions. Don't just stare," says Tammy. "I guess the most hurtful thing came not long ago, a little girl said she was disgusting."

Juliana has to eat through her stomach, and she has a trach to breathe. Already, less than two years into her life, she's had 14 surgeries. Doctors say she could need at least 30 more.

Every time she goes to the hospital, doctors make a mold of her head, and then reconstruct her skull to figure out the next step.

It's a life-long process that's draining for Tammy and Tom. Even still, they're thankful and full of love for their sweet child.

"God never gives you more than you can handle. I figure she has a lot to show everyone... to show the world," says Tom.

If you are interested in helping the Wetmore family, a savings account is set up for donations at the Vystar Credit Union in Middleburg.

Donations can be made at ANY Vystar Credit Union to Juliana Wetmore at member number 2102465.

Spunky · 06-16-2005, 08:43 PM

Poor little girl..a shitload of surgery's for her

tony286 · 06-16-2005, 08:44 PM

thats so sad

nofx · 06-16-2005, 08:47 PM

I bet you $1,000,000 that she will grow up and kill herself.

I would be so fucking pissed if I was her parent and spent hundred of thousands of dollars on getting her face all fixed up and then she offed herself, what a fucking waste eh ?

I would have rather my baby die at birth then come out all fucked up/retarded and have to spend thousands of dollars on it.

wallst · 06-16-2005, 08:48 PM

that's just too fucked up. i've never seen anything like that. poor little girl.

NickPapageorgio · 06-16-2005, 08:50 PM

Very sad. I am so glad my children were void of defects. Those people are strong. I don't know if I could handle that situation as well. I'm going to go hug my kids now.

Sadly the first part is true.

Even if she managed to live, living in that state is a horrible life in my opinion.

morruga · 06-16-2005, 08:54 PM

oh god... best wishes for she and her family...

DaisyDuke · 06-16-2005, 08:55 PM

Shut the fuck up, k thanks.

Babagirls · 06-16-2005, 09:13 PM

i would never put a child of mine through that. all the surgerys, looks & stares, teasing, feeding through her stomach, a trech to breath.....come on, thats not living! thats a living hell just waiting to happen.

Probono · 06-16-2005, 09:20 PM

I don't want to come off as a callous bastard but the child should have never been allowed to survive it's first night. Death before awarness would have been a gift to her, the parents and who ever is paying the hospital bills.

It is just wrong to value the quantity of life over quality of life.

Some strange shit has been comming out about some who served.

The nurse didn't feel like getting a MURDER CHARGE, I guess.

sniperwolf · 06-16-2005, 09:45 PM

she is so lucky to have such loving parents...
i hope everything goes well for her
my prayers goes to the whole family

You might be right but if we were a truly civilized society it would be allowed. I can even play good Christian and say if god had meant the child to survive it would not need man to use technology to save the child.

Vitasoy · 06-16-2005, 09:51 PM

That is just so sad.

Semi-Retired-Dave · 06-16-2005, 09:52 PM

Damn that is so sad.
