Rava Josephine Moore was born on 11.14.25 at 36 weeks via c section. She has a little bit of a hard time breathing so she was monitored in the NICU for a few days before she was able to room in with us. She was always so happy, so sweet, and so incredibly perfect. She smiled from 2 days old and never stopped. When Rava got to our room she had the biggest brightest eyes that always showed her emotions. Rava got to enjoy her first and only Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Year’s, and Mommy’s 35th birthday on 1/9. She loved being loved and was happiest in Mommy and Daddy’s arms. She loved car rides and being pushed around in buggies all around Target and grocery stores. Her big sister would always try to comfort her when she was crying with a stuffie, paci, or just holding her hand. On Tuesday, January 13, 2026, just 1 day before she turned 2 months, we went about our morning routine as we usually did which included her morning nap. We had our usual nursing session and supplemental formula and she fell asleep smiling as always. Right before 11am I woke up and went to wake her as I always did and she didn’t move. She was warm, cheeks were pink, and looked like she was just sleeping. When I went to pick her up to wake her I realized she wasn’t asleep and immediately called 911 and started CPE as I was instructed. Two EMS teams arrived to help her and they never stopped. I had called my fiancée since he was working out of state to tell him what has happened and what was going on before we were taken to the hospital. After we got to the hospital we were there for about 30 minutes before the Dr announced that Rava was gone and that was the last nap I got to put my sweet baby girl down for. Laying next to her crying was all I could do. I didn’t want to leave her, I didn’t want her to be alone, and I definitely didn’t want to go back to a home that has nothing but all of her stuff. She was our perfect sweet girl and I honestly don’t know if we will ever be able to accept what happened when there are no answers. We hurt and cry everyday for her and “moving on” seems so selfish when people say what they say. We will feel the way we feel for as long as we want because she was our little luvbug and nothing and no one can ever take that way from us. We love her and miss her so much every single day. It’s just not fair. There is nothing about this that’s fair. She will forever be loved, forever be missed, and forever be in our hearts and mine.
We love you so much sweet girl
