Olivia’s Light Gifts UVA Health Children’s $50,000 towards broad genetic testing
“Our family didn’t see this coming. I had a healthy pregnancy and a seemingly healthy baby. However, at 36 weeks pregnant I felt a decrease in movement and pushed for an ultrasound. I was induced at 37 weeks. And a few hours after Olivia was born, a nurse saw her turn blue in the nursery. We thought and had prayed that it was a one-time fluke, but multiple life-threatening events followed — so she was rushed to the NICU.”
