Rest in Peace, Faith Hope

I found out the other day that Faith Hope, the baby I blogged about a couple of months ago, has passed away, 93 days after her birth.

Faith Hope, in her short and sweet life, inspired countless people and educated them on the reality of Anencephaly.   And she was able to prove that doctors aren't always right- the doctors gave her a zero chance of living very far after birth, and look at her- she lived 93 days and far surpassed the abilities that they expected her to have.

It is so sad knowing that she is gone, after getting to "know" her and see her so often, seeing the love that her mother has for her, and seeing the precious videos of them together. 

I hope that her mother, Myah, will be able to find comfort in knowing that Faith's life had a beautiful purpose on this earth, and that she will always be loved and remembered by all who knew of her- and that she will one day see her baby again.  

See Baby Faith Hope's blog.

    Oh my this story made me cry and even had my husband tearing up. I am praying for her and her family. She seems to be in good spirits and her faith in God is amazing during this time. Thank you for sharing this update with us.

    How very sad. I don't see on her blog where you can leave comments so if you do talk to Myah or email her, please tell her that I am so sorry for her loss.
