“For three years, she had to put up with cruel taunts because of a condition that left her with a bright red ‘clown nose’ just weeks after she was born”Connie’s “clown nose” was a benign tumour called a haemangioma, made up of a cluster of blood vessels growing abnormally under the skin.

He spent two hours removing the tumour, to give Connie a nose “just like mum’s”.
