REAL STORIES FROM THOSE WHO’VE BEEN THERE

“I’m so grateful for my son’s life. While I would obviously have written my own story differently, I’m so glad that God blessed us with Sam. Because Sam lived, I have lived deeper, stronger and more openly than ever possible before.”

— Kelsey A.

”For all those moments I wished it were over, I would not now trade a moment of Micah’s life for anything. The pregnancy was harder because of the diagnosis, but we still continue to be thankful for the time we had with our son.”

— Hannah

”I was learning that when struck with the unimaginable you will never be the same, you will be changed. You will never love the same, you will love better. Our bond with Grace only strengthened and our love was fierce for her.”

— Andy and Stephanie S.
