“They said that ultrasound machines could only do so much and that we might just have a small baby. But as their baby grew, things looked bad.” After 39 weeks the doctor was forced to perform an emergency C-section. Katie got to hold her baby, Dewey, for a few seconds before they rushed him away to the hospital’s neo-natal unit for intensive care. The doctors told Katie and Josh that their son had been born with clubbed feet and a webbed neck, as they had suspected. But the situation didn’t seem as bad as they had thought it would be. “For the first two weeks all he was diagnosed with was diabetes.

But then they discovered that chromosomes 6 and 10 had broken off and flip-flopped, but it didn’t happen equally.

Basically, he was missing some genetic information and some was duplicated,” explains Katie. Sadly, when Dewey went back to the hospital for a routine check up, everything took a terrible turn for the worst. Dewey was rushed in for an emergency heart surgery, but sadly he passed away at only 4 months old. Katie and Josh were completely crushed by grief.

Days and months went by, but Katie was still paralyzed by dark thoughts. She couldn’t understand how she could lose her precious son, now she had a massive hole in her heart. But destiny was about to change their lives again, this time for the better.

Days and months went by, but Katie was still paralyzed by dark thoughts. She couldn’t understand how she could lose her precious son, now she had a massive hole in her heart. But destiny was about to change their lives again, this time for the better.

“While we were in the hospital, we got to be good friends with everyone,” Katie explains.

As it turns out, there was a baby called Braxtel who had been born in the hospital in the same wing as Dewey. But Braxtel never got to go home from the hospital. He had severe breathing problems, but was on the road towards recovery. There was only one problem: Braxtel didn’t have a home or parents. One of the nurses who had got to know Katie immediately thought of her when Braxtel’s situation became more urgent. They asked Katie and Josh if they were interested in adoption and the couple decided to meet Braxtel a few days later. “Brax’ biological parents couldn’t take care of him, they couldn’t afford his medical expenses.

His biological mom decided to let him be adopted because she recognized that she couldn’t provide the best care for him,” Katie says. Shortly after, Katie and Josh were able to take their baby home.

It wasn’t what they had imagined when they started out, but they couldn’t be more grateful for Brax and how he came into their lives. The couple could not be happier and they say that their marriage is so much stronger because of everything they have gone through.
