Jono Lancaster’s life story is enough to make the
average person say I thought I had problems, but mine are nothing
compared to this mans. Jono suffers with a rare condition called
Treacher Collins Syndrome.
The syndrome effects the person’s appearance,
facial bones and tissue, sight, breathing and hearing. Jono was only 36
hours old, a new born infant, when he experienced the most heart
breaking ultimate rejection, that of his parents abandoning him. During
his life he has also been bullied, felt isolated, and has endured being
stigmatized because of his appearance.
Everything turned around
for Jono when he reached out to others suffering with the same syndrome.
He decided to share his story, and go public, giving support, and
helping them cope. Jono realized God doesn’t make mistakes, he was made
the way he is for a reason, and a purpose, and that God had an awesome
plan for his life, with that in mind he learned to love, and accept
himself, and is now teaching others to do the same.
When he made the
decision to love, and accept himself his life changed in the best ways
possible, and continues to get better, and better. Jono is now
travelling all over the world inspiring and helping others, and the
satisfaction of helping others in his unique way is the best reward in
the world to him.
