Greetings everyone,<br><br>Gosh it has sure been quiet here in the cleft club since Kim officially reopened the doors. I really miss reading posts and talking...
I can't relate in alot of ways but I am still here if you need to vent. My son was born with a cleft 8 months ago and we have been through alot. I have made it...
Hi all,<br><br>I for one am glad to be back at Yahoo. I even upgraded their IM and it is pretty cool. It has some pretty cool features. I also enjoy the way...
Hello, a 'lurking' newbie here! First, a clarification -- I actually have a UNIlateral cleft, not BIlateral. Also I have a tendency to transpose words, but ...
good for you!!!!!!!!! I don't know what it is like to be in your shoes but my son will one day and it is stuff like that, that makes me angry. I am a member of...
Hi Christa,<br>I read the letter that Moya wrote and I do agree that what she is going through is nothing compared to what you and other cleft affected people...
Hi. I read the letter that you wrote and I also read the article. I think that it is wonderful that you write to them and made your point across to them. I was...
Ana, from what I've gathered from friends and family, it does seem like non-clefted people can have a harder time dealing with stares and comments. Getting ...
Well said Shelly,<br><br> It never ceases to amaze me that through reading the posts in this club , that other people that I have never met are "zoning" right...
Hi Trisha<br>I haven't really thought about that 'Sparks' question. It's hard and hurtful no matter how old you are but I agree with you that we learn those ...
First of all the last time I signed on this club, I thaught it was shuting down. <br> Second of all, I want to remind you all, or as we say here in Florida...
Things have been busy here and I finally get to reply now :). I read the article and Christa's letter and that sure is an interesting position that Maya (the...
"Hospital-Under Construction" has a segment about a baby's initial cleft surgery, among other non-related surgeries. <br><br>Tomorrow, 11/4 at 6:00 p.m....
It seems like most everyone is coming back to this club. The page views (yesterday-474, the day before 437) are like the 'old days'. Glad to see my friends...
Yup, I got it :). I spent most of tonight writing a letter.<br><br>For anyone else who wants to write to Oprah about your medical miracle, go to this ...
Dear Krista<br><br>Wow!<br><br>You have so eloquently stated what I have tried to articulate so long. Recently this club has seen a big debate between clefted ...
We watched on thursday nite. It brought back all of the memories and I was having a hard time not crying. I had to watch it though. I needed to know what they...
Hi Kim<br>I did the same thing. I sat and wrote my letter too. I stated that she should do a program on people that have cleft lips & palates. Hey who knows...
Kim - <br><br>Now that you "re-opened" the Yahoo Cleft Club, does that mean that Suday's chat be here at Yahoo? Or will we keep the same chat that we were...
Nope, the chat is still going to be at the new place, <a href=http://cleftchat.cjb.net target=new>http://cleftchat.cjb.net</a> , since the Yahoo chat caused...
WEll, anyway Dylan got his obturator over a week ago I do like it he seems to like it to eat better now but boy he drools worse than he did before...I am gona...
william has a tooth coming in on the cleft side his right side. I can't tell if it is coming in straight but i am just glad a tooth is there. We were getting...

Hello! I have one teeny request -- that my name be spelled correctly. It's pretty easy, CHRIST with an A! I know it's silly for me to ask, but through my life...
It does take a while for tem to come in, cleft or not. Kristi had her two bottom teeth in for a long time before any others ones showed up. We always checked...
Maybe :). But I don't know if a show will do a story just on cleft lip/palate. It's more realistic if they did a more general topic, like facial birth ...
