Dolores' Story

Twenty-three beautiful days

Dolores Margaret Mary was born on August 3, 2026, our beloved daughter and little sister. Before she was born, she was diagnosed with Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome. We received her with open hearts, baptized her, and cherished every moment God gave us.

In twenty-three days, she filled our family with a lifetime of love. Her story is one of faith, surrender, grief, gratitude, and the extraordinary gift of being her family.
