Hello, friends & family

My name is Juliet
Growing up, I always dreamed of becoming a mother. To me, motherhood symbolized love, family, and a bond that would last forever. Losing both of my parents left a void in my heart, but it also ignited a deep desire to pour all the love I had into children I would someday have of my own. Little did I know, my journey to motherhood would be marked by unimaginable heartbreak.

A Dream Turned into Painful Loss
In 2020, when the world was battling with the pandemic, I was overjoyed to learn I was expecting my first child—a beautiful baby girl. I followed every medical recommendation, prepared everything she would need, and eagerly counted down the days to meet my little angel.

 On December 12th, 2020 my daughter, was born at 36 weeks—perfect in every way. For seven precious hours, I held her close, cherishing her tiny features and the bond we shared. But my joy was short-lived.

 She was diagnosed with Neonatal Hemochromatosis, caused by Gestational Alloimmune Liver Disease (GALD)—a rare and life-threatening condition, where antibodies from me travelled through the placenta to attack her organs while I was pregnant. Despite every medical effort, she passed away four weeks later due multiple organs failure

The heartbreak continued. In 2021, I became pregnant with twins—a boy and a girl. Determined to protect them, I underwent grueling weekly Intravenous Immunoglobulin (IVIG) treatments to protect my babies but tragically, in November of 2021 my daughter, the girl twin passed away within 24 hours of birth, leaving me with my miracle son. In August of 2024, I delivered another son at 28 weeks’ gestation and tragically he also gained his heavenly wings after spending 3 weeks in the NICU. In a space of four years, I had lost two princesses and a prince, and they had become my little angels watching over me and their only surviving brother Okatakyie, all this attributing to my rare condition GALD.

Turning Pain into Purpose
The loss of three children in four years shattered my heart, but it also gave me a newfound purpose—to turn my pain into hope for others. I’ve found healing in sharing my story and connecting with other grieving parents. 
During this journey, I realized there isn’t enough data, research and awareness created around this condition especially back home in Ghana where I am originally from. The idea of mothers and parents being stigmatized due to the loss of a child is common practice and spirituality is attached to these misfortunes when there are medical conditions that warrants these losses.
Also, there is limited resources in NICU’s where preemie babies need all the medical attention to survive, and it leads massively to neonatal loss. 

These reasons led to establishing our nonprofit organization goals, where we aim to raise awareness on GALD, provide emotional support for grieving parents, support vital research on GALD and other conditions that lead to neonatal demises and most especially fund underprivileged NICU’s with resources like incubators and other preemie necessities to give families the hope and chance they deserve.

How You Can Help
We are launching this campaign with a goal of $100,000 to:
Raise awareness about GALD and provide educational resources for families.
Offer emotional support and counseling services to grieving parents.
Support groundbreaking research into treatments that can prevent this heartbreaking condition.
Fund deprived NICU’s with resources like incubators and other preemie necessities to give preemie babies a fair fighting chance to survive. 
Every donation, no matter how small, makes a difference. Your support means helping families like ours find hope amid loss.
Time is precious, and the faster we reach our goal, the sooner we can provide life-changing resources and support to those who need it most.

Together, we can sow seeds of hope and bring light to those walking through the darkness of loss.
