A Tennessee mother says she was banned for a day from Facebook after posting 
photos of her dying infant son who was born without parts of his brain and 
skull.

.

After Facebook deleted the photos of the infant, Grayson James Walker, the 
newborn's mother reposted them, prompting the social-media giant to ban her 
from the site for 24 hours, the mother told KCTV 5.

.

"They allow people to post almost nude pictures of themselves, profanity, and 
so many other things but I'm not allowed to share a picture of God's beautiful 
creation," the mother, Heather Walker, of Millington, Tenn., told KCTV.

When Grayson was born on Feb. 15, they knew he would only have precious few 
hours to live.

.

Indeed, he died when he was just eight hours old.

.

The couple sent a professional photographer to the hospital to document the 
birth so the family could honor the memory of their son, Gizmodo reported.

.

They posted several photos on Facebook

One commenter wrote that he hopes the family sues Facebook "for calling their 
son inappropriate."
