She Lived Long Enough to Be Loved

When Stefanie learned her unborn daughter might live only minutes, she chose love over fear.

Carrying Samantha Rose to full term, she gave her child the one gift time could not promise—arms to hold her, warmth to feel, and a family to know. Samantha lived just three days, yet filled a lifetime with tenderness, courage, and meaning.

Even in loss, her brief breath became a legacy of compassion, reminding the world that every heartbeat—no matter how short—is a miracle worth cherishing.
