Miracle baby Jaxon Buell's family abused by trolls saying they should have ABORTED tot born with brain deformity

Baby Jaxon - nicknamed Jaxon Strong - has an extreme malformation of the brain but has amazed doctors by reaching his first birthday

The parents of a baby born without most of his skull have revealed the terrible abuse hurled at them by vile internet trolls.

Baby Jaxon Buell - nicknamed Jaxon Strong - has an extreme malformation of the brain and has amazed doctors by reaching his first birthday.

But his dad Brandon says since his son's story emerged, the family have been bombarded by hateful messages, saying he and his wife Brittany should have aborted the child to avoid the pain he will suffer.

Speaking in a frank Facebook post, Brandon said: "It’s baffling to hear or see other people’s opinions on our baby that have never met him, that somehow know how he thinks, how he acts, how he feels, how much of what he does is voluntary or involuntary, how he is always in pain, and that we are selfish parents for not choosing to have an abortion."

He added: "When we first learned there were concerns for Jax during the pregnancy, we were given the options of carrying him to term or having an abortion because there was the unknown issue.

"No doctor could tell us exactly what was wrong or what to expect, but we did make sure to ask if Jaxon was in pain or was suffering, and we asked if there were any added risks for Brittany during the pregnancy or potentially at time of delivery.

"Since the answer to both questions was 'no', we never came close to considering abortion.

"Yes, we are Christians, and our faith has certainly been vital during this entire journey for our family, but we’re still realists."

Jaxon was born last August with Microhydranencephaly, an uncurable malformation of the brain.

His proud parents Brittany and Brandon are now sharing their story in order to show others than the condition will not define Jaxon's life.

Microhydranencephaly can cause microcephaly and scalp rugae which means Jaxon's head is smaller than normal.

It also means his scalp is ridged – but that doesn't stop Jaxon from living life to the full.

Jaxon’s mum and dad said: "Ultimately, Jaxon will need a miracle long-term. We continue to ask for support and prayers, as it is a blessing that his Mom continues to stay home with him for constant care."

Brittany gave up her job to care for the tiny tot and has since launched a crowdfunding page to help with Jaxon's medical bills.

They wrote on their page: "Jaxon has already shown how strong, smart, and special he is, accomplishing feats that doctors doubted he'd ever be able to do, shows improvements each and every day, and just reached a miraculous milestone in celebrating his first birthday.

"These funds help pay for our regular monthly expenses and Jaxon's continuous medical care, which changes frequently."

The family have so far raised an impressive $54,902 of their $70,000 target.

They are now encouraging people to give them support for Jaxon's "year two".
