Man born without a jaw finds love after lifetime of pain: ‘I deserved more’
After suffering bullying his entire life due to being born without a jaw, Joseph Williams says he’s been rescued by love after surviving decades of feeling “worthless.”
Now, he wants to remind others who might be struggling with challenges that they, too, deserve more out of life.
The 41-year-old (as at 2022) Chicago man was born with the rare congenital disorder otofacial syndrome, which is caused by a mutated gene and left him unable to speak or eat with his mouth. Instead, he uses sign language and an eating tube.
“Dating was also hard for me because I had such low self-esteem and felt worthless, but when I started believing in myself and realized I deserved more, I ended up finding my wife,” he said.
Williams, who works as a welder, had long assumed he would live out the rest of his days a single man — until he met his soulmate Vania, 39, back in 2019.
“We were friends at first, but we eventually started dating and fell in love,” he told Caters News Agency. “We got married in 2020. I’m sure people would never have expected me to get married. To be honest, I didn’t think I would either.”

Bebe Jewelry, a popular businesswoman who operates out of Trade Fair Lagos, prayed for long life in the final video she shared before she passed.
The businesswoman had travelled to China on business. She documented her trip and spoke about how stressful it was sourcing for goods in China.
Sadly, CCTV footage showed the moment she slumped and di£d in China.
In the last video she posted before her de@th, she is heard saying: "I'm tired, so tired. Money matter no easy o. Ah God, bless the works of my hands o. Also, to every woman hustling out there, we will not di£ young. We will all live to eat the fruit of our labour."
She added that when people see hustlers finally enjoying, they will begin envying them, without knowing the sacrifices they made.
She then prayed that God will bless her and every woman who is hardworking.
She said: "I know how I feel right now. Pain in my leg is so much. See heat. The market has AC, yet I'm sweating. It's choking, like my leg hurts so much."
Neche is a coward.. Fact. Heroes don't run, they keep fighting till the end. Why did she apply for the show when she knows she can't be strong enough to withstand any challenge she faces in there? Many other housemates went through worse but still stood till the end. Example was Khosi. If you know you can't do it, abeg clear road for other applicants. Many are dying to be in that bbn house
