Camille

Camille was born with a serious genetic disorder and as her parents celebrated her birth, they also received the devastating news that her life-expectancy was likely just a few months. This little fighter was absolutely adored by her parents and three siblings.  She had numerous hospital visitors who were able to hold her and see her sweet face; even her siblings would do their homework in her room and spend as much time with her as possible.  Her dad said, “When Camille first entered this world, we were devastated at her prognosis of Trisomy-18. But rather than looking at what we won’t have for long, we learned to embrace each day as a bonus and a gift.”  At four months old, Camille was able to go home and enjoy daily cuddles and kisses and her favorite star projector! But sadly, her earthly journey ended in early February.  Her parents received a Memorial Gift in lieu of a wish and shared, “Camille brought so much love.  She would follow you with her eyes until you noticed her.  By the end she was able to babble and when you blew raspberries on her belly, she smiled!!   For the six months that she was here she was so very loved, and she will continue to be loved until we can all be together again.”
