Blakey Blue

 While it sounds like your reading Audry's bio, it's actually another little girl from Ohio. Today I introduce Blake Leigh Farrell.

Blake was born December 1, 2010 in Cincinnati, Ohio. Her first smile was during those first days in the hospital, and she has not stopped smiling since. She loves people, animals and especially her big sister, Finley.
Blake began to show signs of mild hypotonia (low muscle tone) around her first birthday. We began a series of evaluations and tests in December, and in January it appeared her gross motor skills were regressing. Much to our dismay, Blake received a diagnosis of SMA type II on Febuary 6, 2012 at 14 months old.

For those of you that do not know our sweet "Blakey Blue" or "Bumble B", she has the most amazing spirit. If I could describe her in one word it woud be HAPPY! She is the most loving, funny, easy-going baby I have ever seen. People flock to her wherever we go, and the light inside her is contagious. Although this diagnosis has been heartbreaking, we are hopeful, determined, and know that God blessed her with her spirit so that she could conquer this disease.
