Baby boy dubbed 'real-life Pinocchio' after brain grew inside his nose
Online Edition
A little boy whose brain grew inside his nose has been described as the 'real-life Pinocchio' by his proud mum, the Mirror reported yesterday.
Ollie Trezise was born with a rare condition which caused his brain to grow through a crack in his skull into his nose - making it stick out like the Disney character, Pinocchio, according to report.
As the lad grew, so did his nose - forcing the 21-month-old to undergo several painful operations to enable him to breathe.
But his mum, Amy Poole, 22, says the brave tot is now bombarded with cruel comments from strangers saying he is 'ugly' and 'should never have been born', the Mirror reported.
The full-time mom reported said: "It's absolutely heart-breaking. Once, a woman told me I should never have given birth to him. I nearly burst into tears.
"To me, Ollie is perfect. He is my little real-life Pinocchio and I couldn't be prouder of him."
