A newborn baby, like every other human being, is stunning in its own unique way.
In 2018, Angelica was born to ecstatic parents and siblings. A heart-shaped port wine stain complemented her already stunning features. Unfortunately, not everyone appreciated the value of her singular stamp.
Angelica’s mother says that her daughter is loved and welcomed by the family despite her birthmark, but that some others feel entitled to judgment on the way she looks.
Someone questioned if she had forced her face onto a griddle, and it was the worst comment I’ve ever gotten online.
Marianna Bowering, Angelica’s mother, told the Mirror that people had commented that her daughter’s face looked “grilled.”
Marianna added that her daughter has been called “hideous” and a “defect” at times.
This impacted the family negatively and contributed to the difficulties they were already facing, but they were determined to move past it.
No matter what people said, Angelica’s family encouraged her to love herself the way she is.
Marianna painted her daughter’s face to look like it had a birthmark like Angelica’s in the hopes that this would make her feel better.
