Our boys were born at Utah Valley Regional Medical Center in November of 2008. Heather Walker, tender grief specialist extraordinaire, arrived at the hospital before the sun rose to care for our family in our time of shock and grief. She dressed our beautiful Dex in a handmade itsy bitsy blue gown and took photographs for us. To our great pleasure and surprise, she managed to get a few pictures of Dex in an isolette with his twin brother, Crew. They are the only photos we will ever have of them together in this life. We count these precious pictures and the gown he wore among our greatest family treasures.
Because of our experience that morning and throughout our 3-month NICU adventure, we have always wanted to donate to UVRMC. Today we make that personal promise a reality.
We sewed 28 tiny little boy diapers

20 tiny little girl diapers

14 larger boy diapers

And 14 larger girl diapers

That is 76 diapers for 38 little angels gone too soon.

Those diapers are beautiful. I'm sure that every one of the angels' mothers will be grateful!
