Facebook has issued a public apology to Heather Walker and her family following the outrage that erupted over the social media site deleting photos of her baby son who was born without parts of his skull and brain.

RadarOnline.com reported on the heart-wrenching story of the Walkers. Four months into her pregnancy last year, the Tennessee woman learned the baby she was carrying was afflicted with Anencephaly, a rare condition that would prevent the brain from developing. Even though Heather and her husband Patrick knew their baby would be born severely deformed and would likely live only a few hours, she made the decision to carry him to term.
