Baby Daphne, Help Support the Ceja Family

After a perfectly healthy and deeply awaited pregnancy, Samantha and Phillip Ceja began what they thought was normal labor three days before her due date (Oct 6th). Shortly after being admitted at Mission Hospital, the proud parents learned their full-term baby girl no longer had a heartbeat.

Daphne Hazel Ceja was stillborn Thursday, October 3rd at 39 weeks.

“An angel in the book of life, wrote down our baby’s birth date, then whispered as she closed the book, ‘too beautiful for earth’. “

She was perfect and beautiful.

But too perfect for this world.

Daphne is survived by her parents Sam and Phil + her big sisters Dahlia and Lily.

There were no visible signs that would explain the cause, they await for answers confused and heartbroken.

We do not know what our lives will look like moving forward and so we are raising funds on their behalf to remove some of the financial burdens of life to make room for more healing and less worrying.

October is globally observed as Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Month. On October 15th people remember and honor babies lost too soon during pregnancy or shortly after pregnancy.

Any support from our community if it cannot be monetary, we truly appreciate any and all kind words, prayers, acts of service or any helpful resources. Please do not hesitate to reach out.
