Baby Messiah's Headstone

Donation protected
Hello,

My name is Alyssa on September 26th, 2014 my family and I were hit by a drunk driver. At the time of the crash in our car there was my fiance Anthony, Our five year old daughter Shaylah, our two year old son Uriah & myself. I was then five months pregnant with our son, who  we decided to name Messiah Emilio.  After the crash I had lost a significant amount of fluid. I was being closely monitered twice a week and was given a little amount of hope that our son would survive. On October 31st all of that hope was lost. My water had broke and Messiah was 22 weeks and 4 days gestation. The hospital will not resuscitate a baby before 23 weeks of gestation. Messiah fell short of a chance of life by only three days.  So the only option we then had was to deliver our son stillborn.
On November 3rd, 2014 I gave birth to our third child, Messiah Emilio Apodaca at 1:14 am. He was and still to this day is thee most beautiful baby I have ever seen.

Not only did I lose my son due to a drunk driver, I was stripped of my life! I have since the car accident lost my job, peace of mind and everything that was once my "normal".  

Our son lays with just a brick as a marker for us to find him at Mt. Calvery Cemetery. So we are asking out of the kindness of your heart to donate anything. A dollar! Anything at all to help us get a headstone our beautiful angel Messiah deserves.

Thank you for your time.
God Bless
