But this baby looked much different than the rest. <br /> <br />Robert Hoge was born with severe deformities. He had a giant tumor the size of a tennis ball right between his eyes. And his legs were also deformed that doctors had no choice but to amputate them. <br /> <br />In the days following his birth, Robert’s mother was so shocked by her newborn’s face that she refused to see him for a whole week. She didn’t want to take him home. <br /> <br />In fact, she was so horrified that at one point she said she wished he would die. “He is so ugly,” she told her sister. <br /> <br />For several complicated reasons, Robert’s mother genuinely struggled with her son’s deformities, and she was incredibly open about said struggle. <br /> <br />But before you judge, you should know that Robert’s mother is not a villain in his life’s story. <br /> <br />Everything changed for Robert and his mother after a pivotal family meeting. Wait until you meet this incredible man today, at 44 years old, and hear how his mom impacted his life in such a surprising and unexpected way.
