Coral and Our Family
Our daughter, Coral, was born on July 28th, 2016. Three days later she stopped breathing. After numerous tests that returned as “normal”, the genetic testing report showed that she had a rare chromosomal duplication, Dup 15q. Dup 15q is characterized by: seizure disorders, gross motor delays, cognitive delays, autism spectrum disorders, absent or poor expressive language, sensory processing disorders, as well as a variety of other issues. My husband and I were shocked by this diagnosis.
Today we already see so much light, instead of just darkness. The love, support, and prayers we have received have provided us with strength and healing. We are on an unexpected path, and we want to share our journey with you. Coral’s journey. We are forever changed in the most beautiful way.
“When you get to the end of all the light you know and it’s time to step into the darkness of the unknown, faith is knowing that one of two things shall happen: either you will be given something solid to stand on, or you will be taught how to fly.” -Edward Teller
