Bailey was born with Lennox Gastaut Syndrome, a rare form of epilepsy. She was legally deaf and blind and used a wheelchair her entire life. None of this stopped her from radiating love and warmth through every ounce of her body.
Although she never spoke a word, we heard her loud and clear. She never took a step, but traveled through all of our hearts.
Bailey is a daughter, a sister, and an inspiration to us all. In her innocence, she gave us a living model of the qualities we all strive for: trust, love, patience, and hope. Though her journey was full of obstacles, she met every challenge with strength and grace.
“She never took a step, but traveled through all of our hearts.”
Bailey helped us understand a deeper and more selfless love. It was a connection without words, free of judgment, and always full of grace. Her story deserves to be heard and her pure love deserves to be shared.
Bailey’s life was short if measured in years, but long if measured in the goodness and accomplishments she inspired in so many others. Bailey will always be missed, treasured, and held in our hearts.
Her touch has never been so warm.
