Ryder Wells, who is only five years old, has witnessed more horror than most people would in their lifetime.\n\n

\n

Despite all the odds, the North Carolina child survived a vicious attack by two rottweilers in 2015 while spending Thanksgiving with relatives.\n

When the two 100-pound dogs attacked him, he was just 21 months old. He had a shattered arm, a punctured lung, his teeth crushed, and half of his face gone.\n

Although his family didn\u2019t think he would live, this little warrior persevered and has since undergone almost 50 surgeries.
\n\n

Rather from receiving recognition for surviving such a terrible assault, this adorable youngster must now put up with hurtful remarks from both kids and adults.\n

Even the grownups would gaze at Ryder when he first started school, according to his teaching assistant.\n

According to The Mirror newspaper, mom Brittany claimed, \u201cThere\u2019s a child who points and screams\u2019monster\u2019 at him before running away when we go to the park.\u201d\n

\u201cSomeone yelled \u201cew\u201d at him while he was out shopping the other day. As a mom, I find it difficult and heartbreaking that, despite everything he has endured, people aren\u2019t always kind about something he can\u2019t control.\n

\n\u201cBut he doesn\u2019t let anything stop him; he is such a fighter.\u201d\n

Even the medical professionals didn\u2019t think Ryder would survive, hence his survival is referred to as a \u201cmiracle.\u201d\n

The Granite Falls mother, 31, is now terrified of her son\u2019s first day of school.\n

In addition to wearing a cap and spectacles, he occasionally hangs his head to conceal his face. Every day, however, I simply tell him that he is lovely, that being different is beautiful, and that it\u2019s okay to be different.\n

\n\u201cI just try to reassure him as much as I can, but I\u2019m really afraid of him going to school.\u201d Naturally, there will always be a few unkind children.\n

She now hopes that Ryder\u2019s tale will cause people to reconsider how they treat individuals who seem different and to increase awareness of the impact bullying may have on someone who has a facial impairment.\n
