omphalocele

Are you ready for a tear-jerking, heart warming story? Okay, here it is anyway. A new jersey boy, amputee Kayden Elijah, 2, was born with Omphalocele, a birth defect in which organs stick out of the body. It was a tough go for his parents, as doctors had advised his mother to consider an abortion since they thought the baby wouldn't live after birth.
