Facebook Revokes It's Step To Ban The Photos Of The Child Born Without A Nose

Facebook has reportedly uplifted its ban on the pictures of the little boy, Timothy Eli Thompson, who was born prematurely on March 4, 2015 in Baldwin Country. The one-in-127 million baby was born without a nose, a fact that triggered Facebook to block the alleged “controversial” pictures.

The baby was born without the sinus or nasal cavity, a rare condition that is least likely to occur in the newborns. The parents of little Eli, Brandi McGlathery and Troy Thompson, revealed how they had no idea about the abnormality, since all the hospital scans were fine and normal, reported The Independent.

The mother of the baby decided to upload the photo of the baby on Facebook along with the health updates, which was later used by a pro-life group to raise awareness about the rare condition. However, Facebook decided to ban the pictures thinking they were “controversial” and inappropriate.

“Excuse my language, but I’ll be damned if Facebook keeps me from sharing my baby’s story! It sickens me that I can see pictures of half naked women, drugs, & negativity, but my child is too ‘controversial.’ What has happened to humanity?,” shared the mother of three, reported The Independent.

The ban has been finally uplifted by the Facebook officials after they received a huge number of complaints from its users. The photo ban story got over 30,000 shares from all across the world, forcing Facebook to take back its decision. Meanwhile, Brandi is strategically making a note of the Eli's progress on a Facebook page.
