Through it all, Avery’s joyful spirit shines. She loves swimming, cheering on the Buffalo Bills, and filling her home with music, from Taylor Swift to the Beatles. 🎶

Meet Killian, the “miracle baby.” 💙 Before he was born, doctors discovered a large tumor in his heart. Genetic testing confirmed he had tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC), a rare genetic condition that can cause benign tumors to grow in different parts of the body. 🧵

Now 18 months old, Killian is showing no symptoms of TSC. “The only thing he has is the diagnosis itself,” says Savannah. “He has done so well and bypassed every concern.”

These days, Killian is busy being a typical toddler: running around, flashing his mischievous grin and giving plenty of hugs and kisses to his family’s three dogs. 🐶
