Fulfill Avery's Bucket List

My family's hospital ordeal started in March 27 th and continues. But when you read a story like this, it puts life in perspective. Be ready for a good cry. Then spread the word. Doing something helps with the reality that your baby is going to die.



"Imagine you've been diagnosed with an incurable genetic disease and you are told you will not only lose your ability to walk and move your arms, but you will die between now and the next 18 months. What would you do? My name is Avery Lynn Canahuati, I'm almost 5 months old, and this has become my reality. But before I die, there's a few things I'd like to accomplish...this is my bucket list and my story. SHARE IT & HELP ME TELL THE WORLD ABOUT SMA!"

Have a beautiful day.

      Thank you so much Linda. Hard to imagine her pain. Please share with all your friends. Maybe we can make her wish come true. At least the one they have control over.

    Aww... I know how Avery feels. I don't remember myself as a baby, but I went through something similar. When my parents talk about me and how I might have not been here, I cry. And I cry for Avery. My prayers are with her,

    Thanks for sharing!

    SMA couldn't have a more beautiful spokesperson than Avery. What a sweet girl and such loving parents. In tears, with hope.
