Born March 21, 2024 in St. Louis, our sweet Ellia had a battle long before she arrived here with us. Ellia was diagnosed with HLHS (Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome). Our Ellia was amazing, defying all expectations. Ellia spent most of her days as a happy and loving baby regardless of the battle not visible to most. Forever our heart warrior!
