(Heather) Walker learned of her baby’s fatal birth defect 16 weeks into her pregnancy. Though doctors said she could choose to abort, she decided to carry her son to term, turning to her faith to help with the months ahead.This family has a right to grieve their loss anyway they want. They hired a photographer from the non profit Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep to capture the short hours God gave them with their third child.
Heather and family are not taking this rebuff lightly as she reports in this video. I had posted previously about another TN family who had the same issue with their son Isaiah who lived barely an hour but this artistic family had the most beautiful way to honor his short life during their celebration of his life.

beautiful. i love that they honored their child's life like that. i think that it is amazing that she chose to accept that her baby was going to die and made the most out of it for her baby. life is sacred.
I'm so touched with their story, really I am. They've made the best of time with their baby and I am so proud of both of them.
