Our child had already survived life-threatening medical conditions, which had left scars on his little body and deprived him of the opportunity to experience life with other children outside of closely monitored medical facilities. But the most noticeable feature of our son\u2019s many needs, and what drew us to him most, was his smile. *Garrett was born with birth defects and a genetic condition that caused multiple craniofacial anomalies, including a shortened jaw, which made his smile appear crooked, microtia atresia, and a hidden cleft palate.\u00a0<br \/>Doctor\u2019s appointments occurred at an overwhelming rate, and insurance copays and deductibles strained our financial resources more than we imagined. Payment plans began to mount with two area hospitals and other providers and therapists our son needed to see. So much was going on medically with this little boy, but what mattered most was that we had him home. After several months of waiting for him and planning for his care, we could begin to meet his emotional and medical needs.\u00a0<br \/><br \/>Life changed dramatically for our family. We budgeted everything we made and looked for opportunities to save and make extra money wherever we could. Garrett\u2019s medical team seemed to change with each new medical diagnosis. Surgeries we had hoped for were not happening, and medical professionals referred us to other specialists when they realized the complexity of his care. After years of striving to give our son the best medical care and paying for it at literally all costs, we met the amazing team of doctors, surgeons, and specialists at Carolinas Oral and Facial Surgery.<br \/>Dr. Kapitan and his staff have been treating our son and helping us coordinate a comprehensive plan for his medical needs over the past two years. They have also referred us to additional medical and developmental specialists to address other areas of need such as speech, orthodontics, and audiology. We are so thankful to our wonderful team at Carolinas Oral and Facial Surgery for their compassionate care and the connections they\u2019ve helped us make with other medical professionals.<\/p><p>Your contributions to the CleftOut Foundation will aid families like ours in affording necessary specialized care for their child.\u00a0 People impacted by cleft and craniofacial diagnoses deserve to have access to amazing doctors, nurses, and specialists dedicated to providing comprehensive care for patients with often complicated medical conditions.

Emmi is almost seven years old and was born with a cleft lip and palate. She joined our family in November 2017 at the age of two. As if international adoptions are not expensive enough, we were concerned about the cost of surgeries and ongoing care for her.\u00a0 After three surgeries by the amazing team at the Carolinas Center for Oral &amp; Facial Surgery, we were still uncertain about the future financial burden of orthodontics for her. After applying, we were graciously chosen to receive the grant from Cleft Out. It literally brought us to tears as this was a tremendous answer to our prayers. It immediately alleviated any financial pressure we felt and allowed us to focus on enjoying her as our daughter.

She was 3 and a half and had a full bilateral cleft lip and palate. Since that summer, she has had 4 major surgeries, using three separate hospitals and surgeons. She has also undergone the first of 2 sets of braces, an expander, tooth extractions and numerous appointments. She has been such a trooper!<\/p><p class=\"p1\">Needless to say, the expense of these medical needs is no laughing matter. Even with insurance, it has a high out of pocket cost, especially the dental side. Receiving the grant from Dr. Kapitan&#8217;s CleftOut foundation has been such a blessing! We chose to put it right into her orthodonture. With 5 other children, we already knew orthodonture was expensive, but now we had two bouts of it to pay for with her. It&#8217;s truly amazing what this scholarship helps people do.

On top of the global pandemic of COVID-19, this last year has been an even greater transition for our family due to a complete relocation due to a new job for my wife and I both. And with that the increased issues of seeking and receiving insurance coverage of any kind, introductory probationary periods of new coverage, and the mounting monthly costs of insurance itself has caused a great deal of stress and anxiety especially being that we are self-supportive. Jordan was born with a bilateral cleft of her lip and a complete cleft of both her hard and soft palate. It is without a doubt a great honor and with extreme appreciation of your organization that our daughter even has a chance to receive the care that she needs and that it has given her such a lifelong boost in confidence. It also will help in restoring her trust that others outside her own family do genuinely care to see her succeed in life. We simply cannot thank you enough for your assistance!\u00a0<\/p><p class=\"p3\">Very Respectfully,<br \/>Adam Self <span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ad5d93f e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"ad5d93f\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-faeafb4 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"faeafb4\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1125\" height=\"725\" src=\"https:\/\/face2facenc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Emaline-grant-recipient.webp\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-363\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/face2facenc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Emaline-grant-recipient.webp 1125w, https:\/\/face2facenc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Emaline-grant-recipient-300x193.webp 300w, https:\/\/face2facenc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Emaline-grant-recipient-1024x660.webp 1024w, https:\/\/face2facenc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Emaline-grant-recipient-768x495.webp 768w, https:\/\/face2facenc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Emaline-grant-recipient-650x419.webp 650w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1125px) 100vw, 1125px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-fec36f5 elementor-widget__width-initial elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"fec36f5\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><strong>Emaline<\/strong>\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c620dd8 elementor-widget__width-initial elementor-widget elementor-widget-bdt-modal\" data-id=\"c620dd8\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"bdt-modal.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"bdt-modal-wrapper\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"bdt-modal-button elementor-button elementor-size-sm\" data-bdt-toggle=\"target: #bdt-modal-c620dd8\" href=\"javascript:void(0)\">\n\t\t\t<!-- <span > -->\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-text\">Read Emaline's Story<\/span>\n\t\t\t<!-- <\/span> -->\n\t\t<\/a>\n\n\t\t\t<div id=\"bdt-modal-c620dd8\" class=\"bdt-modal-c620dd8 bdt-modal\" data-bdt-modal=\"\" data-settings=\"{&quot;id&quot;:&quot;bdt-modal-c620dd8&quot;,&quot;widgetId&quot;:&quot;bdt-modal-c620dd8&quot;,&quot;layout&quot;:&quot;default&quot;,&quot;splashDelay&quot;:false,&quot;splashInactivity&quot;:false,&quot;displayTimes&quot;:false,&quot;displayTimesExpire&quot;:12,&quot;cacheOnAdmin&quot;:false,&quot;scrollDirection&quot;:false,&quot;scrollOffset&quot;:false,&quot;scrollSelector&quot;:false,&quot;modal_id&quot;:&quot;#bdt-modal-c620dd8&quot;,&quot;custom_section&quot;:false,&quot;closeBtnDelayShow&quot;:false,&quot;delayTime&quot;:false,&quot;pageID&quot;:28}\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"bdt-modal-dialog\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<button class=\"bdt-modal-close-default elementor-animation-\" id=\"bdt-modal-close-button\" type=\"button\" data-bdt-close><\/button>\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"bdt-modal-header bdt-text-left\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"bdt-modal-title\">Emaline's Story<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"bdt-modal-body bdt-text-\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"p1\">Our family cannot begin to thank the Cleft Out Foundation enough for their support and generosity to our daughter, Emmi. Emmi is almost seven years old and was born with a cleft lip and palate. She joined our family in November 2017 at the age of two. As if international adoptions are not expensive enough, we were concerned about the cost of surgeries and ongoing care for her.\u00a0 After three surgeries by the amazing team at the Carolinas Center for Oral &amp; Facial Surgery, we were still uncertain about the future financial burden of orthodontics for her. After applying, we were graciously chosen to receive the grant from Cleft Out. It literally brought us to tears as this was a tremendous answer to our prayers. It immediately alleviated any financial pressure we felt and allowed us to focus on enjoying her as our daughter. Dr. Kapitan and his team and Dr. Quimby and Dr. Collins\u2019 team have given her the very best care. Emmi has a beautiful smile, lots of self-confidence, and a bright future. The Cleft Out Foundation, Carolinas Center for Oral &amp; Facial Surgery, and Quimby &amp; Collins Orthodontics are a gift to our family and so many others.
