She was rushed to SickKids just after her birth. Her family was told to take her home - essentially to die - because she wasnt strong enough for surgery. Miraculously, she thrived and spent the next few months at home.

For a few hours, she was doing well but sadly, she took a turn for the worse. In the middle of the night, Bryces tiny heart stopped.
