Jeannie Mai Instagram – Journeying with @smiletrain deep into the heart of Vietnam, I found myself two hours outside of Hanoi in Thọ Nghiệp, where I met an extraordinary family. The father and three of his four children were born with clefts, symbolizing both their generational challenges and resilience. I was moved by the profound impact that advancements in care have had on their lives—care that wasn’t available when the father was young. As parents, the father and I prayed strength and joy for our children over a delicious home cooked meal prepared by his family, leaving a lasting imprint on my heart❤️1 in 700 babies are born with a cleft, and every three minutes, a new life begins with the same challenge. Join me as we continue to explore these beautiful, brave journeys with #Smiletrain to celebrate their 25th anniversary.
