Hi there.

My son has just been diagnosed with facial palsy following ear surgery and it’s a weird feeling - maybe numbness is the best way to describe it.

So I just wanted to say hi.

Hi JBops,

Welcome to our friendly community and thank you for joining. Thanks for sharing about your son's palsy and your understandable feelings about this. There are other parents on here, as well as people with visible differences themselves and I hope you gain a feeling of connection and support here.

Take care
