The birth and death of a Hemangioma

Reagan developed a hemangioma shortly after birth. After seeing this video I again thanked God for our blessings. I never put a lot of thought into how much worse it could have been.

so are you planning on getting anything done on Reagan's birthmark or do the doctors think it should be fine?

Candice,

Reagan's hemangioma is already getting smaller-PRAISE GOD!! It is on her head unlike this poor little baby and her hair is already growing over it so it is hardly noticable anymore.

Our doc said that they only operate if it is a health risk. Rae is the first in our family to be born with a vascular birthmark. Although as strange as this may seem we have met a lot of twins where one of them have a strawberry and the other does not. Weird, huh?!
