Jade




Here are a few of the pictures we have of us with our daughter, Jade. Some of them the color is off a little.... particularly of her in her little casket. She actually wasn't that 'red'. The bruising you see on her cheeks is from the tape they put on her to keep the tubes in place.

I am so grateful for the opportunity I have to be this precious girl's mother. She was so perfect that she only needed to live 11 1/2 hours. She then returned home.

Oh, that little sweetheart! It's amazing how healthy and gorgeous she looked. The pictures reveal the great love that you all have for her.

I hope I never have to go through such terrible heartache in my life but I am so grateful for the gift you've given us all in sharing how you are overcoming your grief and despair over losing Jade and Benjamin. You have changed my life.
