Tessa Evans, who was born on February 14, 2013, was born without a nose, a rare condition that has sparked admiration and affection from her family and people around the world.
Tessa’s unique condition is known as Bosma Arhinia Microphthalmia Syndrome (BAMS) and there are fewer than 100 documented cases worldwide. Despite the rarity and complexity of her condition, her mother praises Tessa’s “charming” behavior and her “remarkable courage”.
Eight years into her journey, Tessa has become a symbol of resilience. She continues to do well and embrace life to the fullest, despite the challenges presented by her condition, which includes the inability to smell or breathe through her nose.
However, she can still cough, sneeze and catch colds. “It was pretty amusing the first time she sneezed”, recalls her father Nathan, “but we realized it was actually coming from her chest, which was a small but reassuring sign of normality”.
Tessa’s parents, Grainne and Nathan Evans, were stunned when their Valentine’s baby was born without a nose as the pregnancy was uneventful and there were no signs of problems.
A native of Maghera, Ireland, Tessa’s condition required immediate medical intervention. At less than two weeks old, she underwent surgery to insert a tracheostomy tube so she could eat and sleep comfortably.
At just two years old, Tessa achieved a medical milestone when she became the first person to receive a cosmetic nasal implant, marking a significant advance in the field and a remarkable solution to her rare condition.
Walmart delivers great news for customers and is now more committed to making customers happy and having meaningful talks.
Shopping can be annoying with long lines and hard-to-find items. To fix this, stores Iike Walmart introduced self-checkout lanes and “Scan and Go” tech. But some people didn’t like it – they missed the personal touch and found it too much work. Randy Parraz from Making Change at Walmart said customers shouldn’t do cashier work just because Walmart doesn’t want to pay. Walmart heard this and decided not to add more automation.
Instead, they’ll hire more cashiers to make customers happy.
Walmart is now more committed to making customers happy and having meaningfuI talks. This teaches businesses a lesson: being efficient is good, but it’s also important to keep things positive, especially in a world that’s getting more automated.
The human connection is still really important.
