Baby Faith Hope

Dear friends, I wanted to share with all of you the beautiful story of baby Faith Hope, who passed away this past Saturday, May 23rd, in her mother’s arms. Baby Faith had anencephaly, the same disorder as Red’s daughter Therese Joy and my daughter Lucy Rose, but she defied the odds and lived an amazing 93 days! Faith’s wonderful mother, Myah, created a beautiful blog dedicated to tracking Faith’s daily life, complete with pictures and sweet video clips. Those of us who have had babies with anencephaly followed Faith’s blog and watched in amazement as we saw Faith giggle, coo, and hold up her head for the first time. Please say a prayer for Myah as she grieves the loss of her baby girl, and also a prayer of thanksgiving for the beautiful witness of Faith’s life here on earth.
