"LOVE U FOREVER LIJAH"
I carried you in my belly for 9 months.
We held you in our arms for 25 hours and 30 minutes.
~We will cherish your life;
with every beating of our hearts~
Elijah was born on July 9th 2008. He was born with a condition called Occipital Encephalocele. A lethal condition where the brain has herniated through a tiny[or large] hole on the head which did not close during the first 25 days of formation within the womb.
We learned of this condition on February 13, 2008 [I was 16 weeks pregnant]. during a routine scheduled ultrasound.

What a beautiful boy! Precious as can be. I can feel how proud you are.
ReplyDeleteOh my. Marie, I had no idea it was so big. I can see now why you were shocked, having expected to see something similar to Joshua's. What a beautiful boy! And it's so good to see Joshua's "brother". I met another woman who had son with an encephalocele. Jeremy looked like a cross between Elijah and Joshua (similar location to Elijah, same skin colour as Elijah, but similar size to Joshua's.)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful little "brothers". Thank you for letting me see these.
He is just beautiful. Thanks for sharing with us.

He's perfect, just like we knew he would be! I'm blessed that you shared these photos. Thank you. You are still in my prayers.
ReplyDeleteHe is precious Marie and perfect just the way God made him. I love the top picture of him in that outfit, too cute. Thank you so much for sharing your sacred pictures with us. I am praying for you guys day by day.
ReplyDeleteMuch Love and Hugs, Laurie in Ca.
What a handsome gift from God!!
ReplyDeleteSuch a beautiful baby!
ReplyDeleteAwww, he's beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you decided to share these precious photos of your son.
What a cutie! I LOVE YOUR TITLE! Only wonderful mommies like you can pull that off. Thank you for sharing the pictures of Elijah... he's so handsome!
ReplyDeleteThank you is all that I can say, it took alot I am sure to share these precious pictures with the world. Thank you so much. Your son IS Beautiful and you are so lucky to have him. Thanks again Lissa Liston, Reedsville, WV
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing Elijah with us. After your experience with the funeral home posting these pictures must have been a big decision. I love that he has his eyes open, what a gift! Did he cry when he was born? I pray that Jo and Hank will be allowed the gift of Noah's life no matter how brief! Jo is a bit slow in posting her story but I will give and invite on my blog once she is done. She is a very shy person and I think she is not sure what to write, but knows she needs to for support and well as to be a help to anyone out there that will be going down this raod in the future.
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet baby. Thank you for sharing your pictures of him. :)
ReplyDeleteHe is beautiful. He even had gorgous hair! Was he really that long, in the first picture he looks really long, but maybe it is just the outfit that makes him look that long. He is truly gorgous. What a little fighter, even looking up at his momma and the camera. I am continually praying for you and your family.
ReplyDeleteHe's beautiful .... I knew he would be. Thank you for sharing these very private pictures, and for sharing your story so honestly. God bless,
