About

A Heart in Hope was born from one mother’s promise, a child’s legacy, and unshakable faith in God.

Lori’s son Avery was a miracle—a gift she never expected. When he was diagnosed with a rare heart condition, Lori spent four and a half months by his side, clinging to hope and God’s grace through every moment of fear, exhaustion, and heartbreak.

She witnessed other families, too—mothers still healing, parents far from home, all burdened by the fear of losing their child and the crushing weight of financial strain.

In Avery’s final moments, as she held him in her arms and felt God’s presence surround them, Lori made a sacred promise: his life would not be in vain. Through A Heart in Hope, his light would carry on—bringing comfort, compassion, and relief to families walking the same painful path.

Because every moment is sacred—especially when it may be the last.
