2020 #124-UP CLOSE & PERSONAL W/ AUTHOR Desiree J. Philmore


Akron, OH (January 2020) - Desiree J. Philmore, was determined to not become a statistic as a
teenage mother. Giving birth to her first daughter at 16 years old, little Jada was soon
diagnosed with Cri-du-Chat Syndrome. Facing this new challenge, she was determined to
graduate high school and matriculate at college. During her college studies, she became
pregnant with her second daughter, Kymera. As a hardworking mother she was devoted to her
children. She instilled in her children to love and devote themselves to each other and God.
Desiree felt her life was finally coming together until one tragic October night in 2017. The worst
catastrophe any mother could endure occurred when her home became engulfed in flames
while her children slept. Trying frantically to rescue her trapped children, she was unable to
reach them. Left with only her devastating grief and post-traumatic stress, her faith led her to
discover signs and treasures from God that supported her new journey as a bereaved mother.
She was comforted in the knowledge of knowing that her children’s spirits were still with her,
she now has a new purpose to live for. No longer frozen in the midst of a fiery memory, she is
determined to fulfill her true purpose and destiny.
