Iridessa means resembling a rainbow and I was told at 5 weeks (I should have been 9 weeks based on both LMP and Positive tests. The tests were positive before I would have conceived based on the 5 week growth) that I had lost her. A week later, the day after my grandfather passed away, after mourning my loss for a week, she had developed a heartbeat.

My grandfather was Larry Lee. My grandmother is Carmen. My mother is Tina Marie. So the first is Larry and Carmen combined, then my moms middle. And the second is my moms full name combined and my grandfathers middle name.
