About this listen

When Alicia and J.R. found out they were having Josie, they were thrilled. When they found out during an ultrasound that Josie had a cleft lip, they were terrified. But their journey with Josie and Dr. Samir Mardini taught them the beauty of a cleft lip—and how their experience could help other families.

On this special episode of Mayo Clinic Kids, we talk with facial plastic surgeon Dr. Samir Mardini, Dr. Marissa Suchyta, and Josie and her family about the life-changing experience of cleft lip and palate, and how kids of all kinds can learn to embrace and celebrate their differences.

You can get a copy of Dr. Suchyta and Dr. Mardini's book My Extraordinary Face from Mayo Clinic Press or wherever your get your books.
