Mia Robertson, the youngest child of Duck Dynasty members Jake and Missy Robertson, was born with cleft lip and palate, a birth defect characterized by an opening in the top lip that may also affect the gums.
Approximately one in every 1,600 newborns born in the United States has a cleft lip and cleft palate, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
Sweet Mia, now eighteen, has had to endure 13 operations due to her ailment; the fourteenth one was just completed a short while ago. The family sincerely hopes that this will be Mia’s final procedure before her issue is resolved.
The young child stays upbeat through each surgery. Above all, she aspires to be an encouragement to other young children who share her condition at birth. Mia started the Mia Moo Fund on her own initiative and with the support of her family to help ensure that every child has a smile on their face.
Missy Robertson told Christian Post, “One of the Mia Moo Fund’s functions is to spread awareness of the cleft lip and palate journey.””The other one is to assist in providing medical funds for the families and parents who are currently residing in America.”
Jase Robertson provided an update on Mia’s status and mentioned that his daughter is healing nicely on his podcast, Unashamed.
“She’s doing fantastic. He declared, “She’s turned a corner,” and went on, “Everything seems great, seems to be fine.”
The devoted father informed his listeners on his podcast, “Surgery went a little longer than expected, but she is home and recovering.” “We appreciate your prayers for her and our family. She truly is a champion!
Prior to the procedure, Missy discussed her daughter’s health and mentioned that she had been questioned frequently about how many procedures Mia will require going forward. “We simply don’t know is the only response that is ever given,” Missy stated. She continued by saying that they look to God for support. “Since turning eighteen, she has assumed the initiative in all conversations and medical paperwork. It’s been a bit peculiar,” Missy penned. However, it serves as yet another reminder to rely on the Lord and recognize that I am not in charge.
In addition, Mia wishes to be at “the finish line.”
“Hopefully this will be the last time I see my physicians like this! We’ve come to the end of the journey, brave Mia remarked.
As they welcome a child whose mother is unfit to care for them into their hearts and home, the Robertson family has also been getting ready for a new member.
We hope Mia heals quickly.

I found an old photograph in my wife’s collection, which prompted me to decide to end our marriage.
One tranquil evening, John found himself immersed in Sarah’s vintage photo album, exploring a collection of their shared memories. Amidst the cherished snapshots from their early years, one particular image stood out, hinting at a revelation that could shake the foundation of their marriage.
In the photograph, a young Sarah beamed with nostalgic joy. However, John’s pulse quickened as he noticed a detail that shattered his sense of security.
There, intertwined with Sarah’s hand, was the unmistakable silhouette of another—a man’s hand, starkly reminding John of a former connection. Panic surged through him as he realized that the date on the photograph coincided with the beginning of their own relationship. The revelation left him stunned, engulfed in a whirlwind of confusion and disbelief.
Summoning his courage, John brought up the photo with Sarah. Initially taken aback, Sarah explained that the snapshot was from the final days of her previous relationship, taken when her ex had visited to collect his belongings. Unaware of the subtle detail, Sarah’s mother had innocently captured the moment, unknowingly preserving a scene that would later sow seeds of doubt and mistrust.
Despite Sarah’s attempts to reassure him, John found himself torn between trust and suspicion. The unexpected appearance of her ex-boyfriend’s hand in a cherished memory from their courtship cast a shadow over their entire relationship. The lingering unease intensified, magnifying feelings of betrayal and gradually eroding the trust that had once bonded them.
Amidst this emotional turmoil, John made the painful decision to end their marriage. What once seemed like an innocuous photograph, a relic from the past, had transformed into a catalyst for unraveling the trust and intimacy they had carefully built. Their story stands as a poignant reminder that even the most innocent images can carry unforeseen significance, unearthing hidden truths and testing the resilience of love to its limits.
