Ally learned of her daughter Noelle's life limiting diagnosis, Ebstein's Anomaly, during a follow up anatomy scan.  Ally discusses what it was like to live with hope & fear while navigating a pregnancy with so much unknown. Although she only lived 62 minutes on Earth, Noelle's memory lives on in her parent's lives and heart. Ally now uses her spare time to promote Noelle's legacy and advocate and spread awareness to neonatal death, and Congenital Heart Defect (CHD) Awareness.  

Ally is a light in a very dark place & she chooses to tell her daughter's story to help others suffering the same situation.
