Boris Kodjoe writes touching letter to his daughter with birth defect on her birthday

The actor and model wrote a beautiful, touching letter to his daughter, Sophie Tei-Naaki Lee Kodjoe on her 10th birthday which is today March 5. Sophie was diagnosed with spina bifida (split spine - a birth defect that involves the incomplete development of the spinal cord or its covering) at birth. Read the letter below..
To My Little Heart. The day I met your mother I knew I was ready to be a man. The day I met you I became one. You've shown me what true strength and courage is and  you taught me that the love of faith and the faith in love is one and the same.
I'm in awe of your ability to defy the odds and I marvel at the confidence with which you produce miracle after miracle. You smile your way through life and your light touches everyone around you.
I'm proud of you because you are your mother's daughter, I'm proud of you because you are
Sophie Tei-Naaki Lee Kodjoe.
Happy 10th Birthday my little heart. I love you more than you will ever believe.
Daddy
#ThankYouGodForMyAngel

PRAYER said...

Thats the spirit my brother. Not that foolish woman who was asking government to come and take her baby away because he had some birth defects. I know its tough, but the child in question is still your blood and your love for your blood should be unconditional.

I believe in miracles, Spinal Bifida is a condition God can change. Keep believing, your miracle is on the way brov.

Unknown said...

Wow! the love from parent to child is unbelievable.

Thumb up Boris, your love can make all the different. am sure that is the bank she draws strength from

I have Spina Bifida too! It's not easy oooo. Especially in this our Nigeria where life isn't easy on normal people not to talk of those with birth defects and other disabilities. That's why I encourage ladies who are of child bearing age to stock up on their folic acid as it reduces the risk by a great percentage! N200 for about 150 tablets or so. Very cheap price to pay for the well-being of our unborn(s). And as you all can see, it's incurable so no be money matter or Boris would have sold all his organs to save her from the pain and depression she's going through as my family would have. It is not just an oyibo sickness. I am Nigerian. An adult! 29 years old and been going through it all my life! If more people know what it is and open up, ya'll will be amazed. Some people say it's an attack from the village, just like my parents thought and made me believe until I knew better. Lol. Prevent Spina Bifida today. Contact me for more information - kwuloonmanma@gmail.com. Thanks for posting this Linda.

Happy Birthday Sophie! Many more years as we rock the Yellow color with all the pride and dignity we can muster! We have the strength and courage of a hundred zillion people!‎

Flakeebaby said...

Dis actually brought tears to my eyes, because I also had a baby with the same defect but I lost the baby 3 years ago. I miss my baby so much

Anonymous said...

Spinal bifida is preventable if pregnant woman take folic acid for 3 months. Is well
