Charity Rachelle Moses celebrated her earthly birthday in Indianapolis, IN on February 2, 2016.
Faced with Trisomy 18 (aka Edward’s Syndrome) and a large VSD in her heart, medical professionals sent her home to die but her family decided they would instead take her home to live.
Each of her 99 days was a true miracle and Charity was a champion and a fighter. Her heavenly birthday was on May 11, 2016 when she peacefully went from her mother’s arms into the arms of Jesus, in the comforts of their home.
Trisomy 18 is very fatal in children. Only 25% of children born with Trisomy 18 live past a couple of weeks. Charity made it into the 25%. Of the 25% that survive, only 5% will make it to their first birthday. Every day Charity lived was truly a gift. Her big sister, Destiny, said “Charity may have been our storm but she was also our rainbow.” Her family now looks forward to seeing their rainbow again.
Charity’s inspiration and strength was celebrated Sunday, May 15, at the New Creations Church, in Richmond, IN. Interment followed in the Elkhorn Cemetery.
In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions are encouraged for Restoration Church, 1 SW 17th Street, Richmond, IN 47374
