Cleft Lip and Palate Children

[PHILL8349@aol.com]

I have an 11 year old daughter with cleft lip and palate. She
has had a total of 3 surgeries and had to wear a device to
"stretch" her jaw. She is now in braces. She is fair
skined and her scar is visible. The next procedure we are looking
at is bone grafting. All this makes her feel
"different" at an age when fitting in seems to be all
too important. I thought that if I could hook her up with other
kids around her age it might make her feel better. Also I have
heard of a summer camp for kids with cleft lip and palate. We
live in Ft.Myers, FL. If any of this sounds familar to you please
e mail us my daughter Katie and I would really appreciate it.
Thank You.
