W
hen doctors told Hayley and
Trevor Lamoureux halfway
through their pregnancy
their baby had a life-threatening kidney
disease, they asked: "What if ?"
What if their daughter beat the odds?
What if she were born healthy enough to
survive? What if they could hold her, just
for a few minutes?
"I don't know what her life will be like.
You might get an hour, you might get 10,"
Hayley recalled the doctor telling them.
"But I can't say that one hour won't be the
greatest hour of your life."
"We went in there knowing what ever
time we got, it would be a blessing," she
added.
They were blessed with 30 hours.
Thirty hours after their daughter Veyda
Faith entered the world, she died in their
arms. And those 30 hours have changed
their lives.
"Our hearts are 10 times bigger than
they were before," Hayley told the Denver
Catholic Jan. 9 at the couple's lower
downtown apartment.
TRUSTING GOD'S PLAN
The winding road of Veyda's journey
began last August when Hayley,
27, went for a routine 20-week
