Parents kiss 1-year-old daughter goodbye and switch off life support, but then they hear her voice

Parents Lee and Francesca Moore-Williams were alarmed when their 18-month-old daughter Bella started losing hair. Doctors suspected asthma, but on a family vacation in Spain, Bella’s energy plummeted, and she lost consciousness. Back home, she was hospitalized and dependent on a ventilator due to severe brain abnormalities.

Tragically, doctors advised ending life support. The family tearfully said their goodbyes and took a farewell photo. Shockingly, as the ventilator shut off, Bella began breathing unassisted, her oxygen levels reaching 100%. Diagnosed with Biotinidase deficiency, a rare genetic ailment, she now manages it with tablets.

Five months post-hospitalization, Bella was discharged, started walking, and is thriving, despite being behind her peers. Doctors are optimistic about her progress. Francesca expressed guilt over the farewell gathering, unaware of the outcome. Bella’s remarkable recovery showcases her resilience, making her story profoundly inspiring.

In Francesca’s words, “The family will never forget the moment they had to say goodbye to their daughter.”
