Parents go above and above for their kids in order to assist and safeguard them. Celine Casey, a British woman, took an exceptional step for her daughter Vienna Brookshaw. Vienna, who was born in April 2021, had a birthmark between her eyebrows on her forehead.
Congenital melanocytic nevus (CMN), the birthmark, didn’t present any health issues, but Casey was concerned about the emotional effects it would have on Vienna as she got older.
An Uncommon Illness
A rare disorder known as congenital melanocytic nevus (CMN) occurs when a baby is born with a harmless cluster of pigment cells. These cells have the capacity to proliferate along with the child. Fearing that Vienna would grow to hate her parents, Casey went straight to the physicians to discuss her choices for having the birthmark removed, worried about the difficulties her daughter might encounter later on.
“We cherish every moment of Vienna’s journey and eagerly await the day she can express her own thoughts,” said Vienna’s mother, Casey, who is immensely compassionate. We would always and forever love her, birthmark or not.
The Need to Be Accepted
Casey was inspired to have Vienna’s birthmark removed because her infant seemed uncomfortable with people staring at her. Vienna was handled differently than other babies, which made her even more determined to pursue the removal.
Overcoming Difficulties
When Casey first requested the operation, the National Health Service (NHS) turned him down because they said it was more cosmetic than necessary for his medical well-being. Unfazed, Casey launched a crowdfunding effort to secure the required sum of money from kind donors. The campaign raised an incredible $52,000 in just one day. Unfortunately, they still need an extra $27,000 for the procedure because of higher hospital expenses during the COVID-19 pandemic.
In an attempt to raise additional funds, they went back to GoFundMe to pay for Vienna’s birthmark removal procedure. “Everyone has insecurities about their body,” said Casey. We perceived it differently, even though the doctor assured us that it wouldn’t currently affect Vienna’s mental health. Little ones are sensitive and pick up on these things, especially when they begin school at age three.
A Pathway to Recovery
Vienna’s birthmark has been successfully removed, and she is now a healthy two-year-old with just a tiny scar remaining on her forehead. Casey frequently remarks on her newborn girl’s extreme beauty while providing regular updates on her daughter’s recuperation.
The concerned parents went so far as to fly to London to have the surgeon confirm that the little scar was healing. Vienna had already undergone three operations and therapies, so they wanted to make sure she wouldn’t need any more. Fortunately, she is well at the moment and doesn’t need any more medical attention.
Vienna’s Promising Future
We send little Vienna our warmest regards. We wish her a lifetime of health and pleasure as she grows up. Do not hesitate to tell others about her inspirational tale!

Even though there are dozens of different experts that work on the appearances of characters in movies, they aren’t immune to making mistakes. And in the end, viewers may catch these fails in makeup or costume choices that couldn’t have possibly existed during the time in which the movie was set.
We at Bright Side decided to watch some of our favorite movies and read some fashion history books to find the mistakes makeup artists and costume designers have made in popular films.
Gone with the Wind
No matter how trendy Scarlett O’Hara was, she couldn’t have predicted the clothing trends for decades in advance. Her famous slim-fitting red dress with feathers and rhinestones has nothing to do with Civil War fashion — it was inspired more by styles from the 1930s and 1940s.
Julius Caesar
In the 1953 film, most of the female characters wore extravagant bullet bras. In Ancient Rome, women would wear a strophium, a prototype for the modern bra, but these weren’t bullet bras.
Legends of the Fall
Trying to create a romantic look, costume designers ignored the historical facts. Brad Pitt’s character has beautiful blonde hair and facial hair but these things were unacceptable for the time period. More and more men were choosing to don big mustaches and short hair at this time.
King Arthur
The film, which is set in the fifth century, portrays knights in heavy metal armor. But until the fourteenth century, such armor was made of leather, and only mail armor was made of metal.
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix
The film is about events that happened in the ’90s and the clothes look pretty accurate, however, they’re still not perfect. Dudley Dursley is wearing G-Unit shorts — a brand that was created by 50 Cent in 2003.
Hello, Dolly!
The movie is set in New York at the end of the nineteenth century when such a hairstyle, lip gloss, and eye makeup didn’t exist. But the movie still got 3 Oscars and became one of the most important films of the decade.
Queen Margot
Throughout the entire film, the characters are wearing beautiful dresses with open shoulders. They look great but in the sixteenth century, women never ignored shifts (or chemise in French). These pieces of clothing protected them from the cold, absorbed sweat, and were really easy to wash.
Another mistake costume designers made was the way the main character’s hair was let down. Based on the few portraits we have of Margaret of Valois, she had curly hair that she wore up.
The Danish Girl
The Danish Girl starts in 1926 but in the first half of the film, we see women in slim-fitting clothes that have nothing to do with the fashion of the 1920s.
At the beginning of the film, Gerda has a hairstyle that was actually quite outdated for the setting that favored waved or bobbed hair.
A Dangerous Method
In one scene, Keira Knightley appears only in her corset, which is a contradiction to the original rules that came along with wearing this piece of clothing. A woman would never wear a corset alone.
Bonus: Mary Queen of Scots
In Mary Queen of Scots, Saoirse Ronan is wearing asymmetric earrings, which were non-existent in sixteenth-century Scotland.
In your opinion, do you think such mistakes are serious or no big deal?
