Blindsided by a pregnancy just six months after the birth of her second daughter, the author finds her life-and faith-shattered when early scans signal a profound crisis. What begins as a fight against genetic defects is soon revealed to be a battle against the inevitable: at 16 weeks, doctors confirm their daughter, Len©, has a terminal heart defect, incompatible with life.

Carrying Len©: A Heart So Small is the raw, intimate memoir of the two-day, agonizing induction that follows, chronicling the mother's emotional breakdown and the terrifying physical collapse when her own heart failed under the strain. In an act of profound self-preservation, she makes the agonizing choice to say a final, silent goodbye, carrying home only a tiny clay handprint as proof of her daughter's existence.

But the story doesn't end with loss. Fueled by a vivid dream where Len© gives her a mandate to survive, the author navigates the chaotic aftermath-the surgical cleanup, the crippling self-blame, and the immense pressure to carry on for her two living daughters. The book culminates in a miraculous, high-risk rainbow pregnancy that proves life persists, teaching the family that true healing is not about moving on from Len©, but learning the sacred, resilient work of carrying her with them forever. This is a profound testament to the power of enduring love, proving that even the shortest life can leave the deepest, most radiant imprint.
