The mother took her just-born-baby home and prepared herself to watch the little one die – but the little courageous soul decided otherwise. Read this incredible story of hope and survival!
Kenadie was born so small that nurses in the hospital called her “Thumbelina.”
She was born on February 13, 2003 with a rare form of primordial dwarfism that only affects about 100 people in the world, and weighed all of 2.5 pounds at birth.
Primordial dwarfism can possibly result in delayed mental development, respiratory illnesses and digestive problems. Doctors prepared Kenadie’s mother Brianne not expect the baby to survive more than a few days.
The heart broken parents decided to quickly baptize her on the very same day she was born and then took her home immediately. They feared that the child might suffer severe brain damage and quickly pass away.
“We baptized her right away because we were told that we should just bring her home to die,” Brianne told Barcroft TV.
They never could have imagined that this little miracle will survive and astonish all.
Watch the video and see how this little girl proved science wrong. She lived on way ahead of her expected life span as defined by the doctors.
