My sister told me I should check out this site because I was born with BPFFD. I am 31 and a wife and mother of two beautiful children. Here is my story. I was born in 1977 with this birth defect that the Doctor attributed to a morning sickness medication that my mother took while pregnant. My femur bones are very short, and I am missing the ball of my right femur. I am 4 feet nine inches!I have never had any surgeries because my only options were the lengthening or the amputation of my feet just to make me taller.
