In 2002, Missy was thrilled to learn she was expecting again. Already a proud mom to two sons, the news filled her with joy — until heartbreak struck. The pregnancy turned out to be ectopic, and she had to undergo a painful procedure. The emotional toll was heavy; she grieved not just the loss, but the future that would never be.
But hope returned quickly. Not long after, Missy and her husband Jase learned they were expecting once more — this time, a baby girl. They named her Mia.
The joy, however, was mixed with fear. Mia was diagnosed with a congenital condition before birth, and Missy felt the weight of the challenges ahead. But Jase, ever the steady presence, chose hope. Where Missy saw hardship, he saw strength — and a future they would face together.
