In 2014, Autumn Cullen was at the 20-week ultrasound of her fifth child – and only daughter – when she learned her baby was missing part of her brain. In the weeks prior, Autumn had happened across a scrap of paper where she’d scrawled potential baby names during a previous pregnancy with her twins. One of those names stood out to her. It was Story.
Not long after that ultrasound, Autumn was told by a doctor that her unborn baby was unlikely to survive.
“When that happened I was like, well, maybe she’ll just be our little story of grace,” remembers Autumn, speaking from her home in California’s capital.
“We’re naming her Story Grace and we’re going to start talking about it. She’s going to be our story of grace, no matter what comes. We’re going to celebrate her and be thankful for whatever she brings to us.”
Story Grace is now 11. She’s also the reason Autumn founded her business, , which offers nutritious, powdered real-food options for people who, like Story Grace, rely on tube-feeding.
And there's so much more to her story: https://www.theblendmag.com/family-stories/wild-at-heart
