    My heart is broken for you, I lost my son at 2 days old in 1984. He was and is so precious to me. I was broken at the time but then my Mom reminded me that my 2 year old needed me here but Brett was home with God and was fine. I have raised 2 wonderful sons but never forget I have a third one waiting for me to come home. Bless you and your family.

    My heart is with you. My first grandson, Orion, quietly stopped breathing three feet away from my daughter while she was reading. He was 10 weeks old. The pain of infant loss unites too many of us. My very best to your family as you try to heal. What a beautiful child Abigail was. 🕯

    I will keep you all in my prayers. My granddaughter went back to Heaven 4 years ago. It isn’t easy and I am so sorry that you lost Abigail. You will see her again. My son and his wife hold onto their testimony of Heavenly Father and our Savior. May you feel His comfort and love.

    I saw on a very old baby's grave many years ago " An angel wrote in the Book of Life, our baby's date of birth. Then whispered as she closed the book, too beautiful for earth" It has always given me comfort over the babies I got to carry but never got to hold. Abigail was such a beautiful baby, my heart aches for you all. You are in my thoughts and prayers xxx

    I lost my son Taylor in 1999. He was full term. He passed away from Placenta Abruption . He passed on the day he was supposed to be born. To have to deliver my son that had already passed was one of the hardest things I had to do in my life. I got to hold him for a long time afterwards. It was so hard leaving the hospital without him. I cried so much. I couldn’t leave my house for the longest time,because whenever I would hear a baby cry, I would breakdown crying. I think about him all of the time. He will forever be in my heart. My heart ♥️ goes out to you both and your family. I know I will get to see him again and you will get to see Abigail again.

    I happened to come upon your video while scrolling on YouTube. We lost our first baby, our beautiful daughter Selah in 2018 and just celebrated her would be 5th birthday on 7/11. Losing a child is like nothing you can ever experience. We also had to make the decision to take her off supportive measures because she was suffering. Jesus got us through and He is the Way the Truth and the Life and we know we will see her again some day. Blessings to you! Thank you for sharing!

    My daughter was born with a bacterial blood infection. She survived with learning disabilities. Her name is Kaelyn Joy and is 28 now. From momma/granny/retired nurse, Tanya Joy. I'm glad to know you know Jesus. We do too. Love and blessings for your family and big hugs from Jesus, to carry you all through.

    I'm sitting here crying, Abigail was a beautiful light in this world. My heart goes out to you both and your family.
  • @ritaandrews9024
    You are such wonderful parents, the decision was selfless and it wasn't easy to let go of Abigail, but you did it for her, she knows what you did for her. You two are the bravest parents, and you will see her again.

    So very very sorry for the loss of beautiful Abigail!😢 “Though she may not be in your sight, she will always be in your heart.”🙏❤️
  • Weeping with you over the loss of your precious daughter. Jesus is near to the broken hearted. I can’t imagine the ache you must feel in your hearts but it’s so tender and precious that you’re leaning into Jesus in the hardest of moments. I’m praying for you and your family as you navigate the hurt and healing.
  • I don’t normally get really emotional when watching these stories. I’m a Respiratory Therapist and have learned quite a few coping skills in my 30 years of practice. What caused me to become really emotional is when dad’s voice became unsteady and moms as well. When dad said he was the first and last to hold Abigail it just pulled a string in my heart and I burst into tears. Sweet Abigail know that you were and are loved. I know your mom and dad and big sister will be happy to be with you once day but until then you just sit on Heavenly Father’s lap and soak in all the love. What a precious story and precious family!!!!

    Thank you for sharing the story of beautiful Abigail Joy. What an apt name - she is basking in the joy that comes from being in the arms of Jesus. Praise God! May she rest in peace. ❤️
  • I lost my little brother and then lost my son two months ago. Hugs and prayers to you all.

    I'm so sorry for your loss. I know how hard it is....My oldest daughter was murdered 24 years ago at the age of 18. Bonnie loved babies. I've always liked to think she's in Heaven taking care of the babies. Maybe she's taking care of your Abigail. Bonnie's birthday was March 6 and I noticed that Abigail's angel birthday was March 6. A sweet, but difficult date for all of us. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

    Praise God for giving us hope. I lost a baby almost 9 years ago. She was stillborn at 38 weeks. That first year was so very hard. There were many days where I didn't know if I would ever not be weighed down with grief. I am so glad to hear that you know the Lord. He is all that we can really cling to. I am praying for you. It may not feel like it some days, but God is truly good, and He truly does care. May the Lord bless you, and may he use Abigail's story to bring hope to others.

    I am so extremely sorry for your tremendous loss 💛 our son was born in December at 29 weeks after I delivered early from preeclampsia as well. He developed an infection on his third day and passed hours later. Spending those few days with him was the joy of my life, as I’m sure was yours with your sweet Abigail. I know our babies are in heaven and we will see them again some day! ❤️
  • @mimimonster
    Thank you for sharing your story. I lost two babies via miscarriage and even though I wasn’t able to give birth to them, one of the most difficult things at the time was that I felt so alone and wasn’t able to connect with other women who had experienced the same thing bc people just don’t talk about it. I know sharing your story is really going to help other people feel less alone in their grief. God bless you both ❤
  • @bonnietolles1271
    The title of your video really caught my eye. I, too, lost a daughter named Abigail. (But she was 10 years old.) My heart is breaking for you. What a beautiful little baby! Stay close to Jesus. He will get you thru this. Sending you big ((((hugs))))!
  • Praying for you all 😢I lost a grandson he was two months old ☹️But we will see these precious babies again someday Praise the Lord ❤She is a beautiful baby ❤💕😍
