The other night, I had the pleasure of meeting beautiful Scarlett Jade.
At 20 weeks along, Scarlett's mother, Elizabeth, and her father, Bryan, found out some devastating news. Their baby girl was diagnosed with Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome (HLHS), and will not survive long after birth.
Wednesday afternoon, on January 6, 2016, this full term, 5lbs. 6oz. baby girl made her entrance into the world. Scarlett Jade showed her true fighting side to everyone. As the minutes turned to hours, and the hours turned to days, her family was by her side and fell in love with her more and more. I cannot describe the love I saw in her siblings eyes while they stood over her bassinet just studying her every move.
This sweet baby did not need to wait for heaven to become a perfect little angel. There is no doubt that she was immediately her momma and daddy's earthly angel .
Scarlett got her heavenly angel wings 2 days later on Friday morning. Please keep Elizabeth and Bryan and their family in your prayers during this time.
