It's not easy to live with a port wine stain...the question that always comes up in my mind is : Why ? Why do we have this stain on our face ? Why do we have to look different ? I've a rather small stain right under my left eye compared with most stains i see on the internet. It certainly has effected my life , but the I start thinking about people that are badly injured or people who have a handicap...

I've been through the laser treatment. Seeing her picture after the surgery brings back alot of memories.
