Thank god she’s as independent as she is. Shaken Baby Syndrome can cause lasting damage that can affect various parts of life for those who were shaken.
But God! The enemy tried to take your child. I thank God that you were attentive and knew her arm was broken and immediately took her to the dr. I thank God for her healing and that she is living a good life. I’m also glad and thankful that her Dad took accountability and justice prevailed. God bless you and your children.
I went septic after my twins were born. Brought them home from the nicu and spent weeks trying to survive. I was so scared to leave the kids with their father to seek medical attention. He impregnated me as a form of control, to prevent me from leaving. It was such an exhausting part of my life. I'm grateful you're sharing this story publicly. It is a relief to see women speaking out on these distressing topics.
I’ve been silently watching you for awhile. This video got me in tears. I’ve only one son, and I remember him crying and I just didn’t know what to do. I was so fortunate to my mother, she loved to tell me, “crying not dying, set him down in his cribby and take a step back” and I just can’t imagine not having that kind voice in my ear. You’re wonderful and I really admire all your strength and patience. I absolutely adore you and your family 🖤🖤
Precious, you are such a great mother. My gosh, I'm so inspired by your gentleness. I remember a nurse once said to me, "Your going to be frustrated when they start to cry, maybe even become very angry and exhausted, but just remember, the ONLY way a baby can talk to you about their needs is by crying." Walk away. Take a breath. Call someone and ask them to come over and take the baby while you take a walk. It's okay. No one is always on their game.
I feel so much pain for you… hearing about how your poor baby got her arm broken by her bio father and was shaken violently to a point where she doesn’t even cry anymore. I have a baby almost 3 months right now, and just imagining this happen to my baby or any baby is nightmarish. I am so sorry for you and your dear daughter. And thank you for spreading awareness.
How dare him try to blame you. Now if you was put in jail, both babies would be in the hands of danger. He can't handle one, how would he have handled 2 smh. Thanks to God you had proof. Thats terrible and disgusting of him!
Precious, I'm not sure what to say because everyone has said it already. But I was moved to tears by your video. I'm now a 63-year-old mom/grandma and I can barely imagine what you felt. However, I'm certain that by you and Ma'Kenzie sharing, some children will be helped and saved. Your bravery is commendable. Hugs Mama 💜
Ironically May is also mental health awareness month which coincides with your story and how we can choose to handle our stress or mental health so that we don't become overwhelmed. I'm so sorry for what you went thru and sending love to your daughter ❤️ so brave to share such a personal touching story with us and yet I hope it helps to bring awareness and open conversations for young parents on how to handle the rough days. Bless you for all you do 💚
Thank you for telling your story. I pray all babies are protected from this abuse all over the world. I pray your daughter grows up to be a normal child despite what has happened . ✨💕✨🙏✨
This is disturbing. I am so sorry this happened to your child. 😞 he is such a horrible person. He could have at least told you. This is unacceptable 🙂↔️. Like you said, let the baby cry. Don’t hurt them.
Edit to add: Have you heard of the youtube channel 'Secial Books by Special Kids'? They go around the country interviewing people with disabilities and their families and educating people about different things that people go through in their lives. They did an interview with a mom who has a daughter that suffered shaken baby syndrone. It would be cool if they could interview you guys or maybe they have resources that could help your family. I can't even imagine how difficult this must have been for you and your daughter. And now you're sharing the story, re-living it again. Your story is going to help so many people. Thank you for being so open about these difficult things and thank you for asking your daughter if she was okay with you telling this story.
Thank you for sharing. You don't really hear first case experiences of SBS like this. Very scary what happened to you at the hospital with the police... I can't believe biodad tried to blame you...Glad you and your family and daughter are well.
I don't even have babies anymore. My kids are grown, but they haven't had any children of their own. I just saw a short, and I came to the channel because you seemed so patient and caring as a mother. I was bawling my eyes out by the end when I was looking at your daughter's photos. It was not your fault. That's what's so scary. Someone very close to you can do something like this, and you may not know and it will affect your child for the rest of their life.. my daughter has adhd, and she was diagnosed by the time she was 5. It was pretty serious in the beginning, but medication helped her quite a bit. I didn't like to medicate her though. We would take her off medication whenever she wasn't in school. We took her off medication halfway through her freshman year of high school. She did just fine, and she has grown into a strong independent woman. She always knew what she wanted from the time she was a small child, and nothing ever got in her way. She's a strong person, stronger than her mother. I'm so proud of both my kids. They're good people. You seem like an amazing mother, and for some reason I was drawn to you. Even though the subject matter isn't relevant to me, it moves me and I want to see more of what you share about your life. You are beautiful. People amaze me sometimes
I'm so glad your daughter did not have any life altering injuries. Thank you for sharing your experience and knowledge. Your an amazing Mom with a great family.
Oh my goodness! You have been through so much as a mother and you seem so strong, So loyal and dedicated! You need to be told daily JUST HOW AMAZING YOU ARE AT BEING A MUMMA!!! You truly are a beautiful mother!! Always remember YOU ARE THE BEST MOMMA THOSE GORGEOUS BABIES COULD ASK FOR! Xoxx Sending support and love from Australia 🇦🇺 ❤
I could just NOT do this. Like. How do you even get to know your kids arm is literally fractured, then go through their dang dad saying it was like that? Wow no... I don't wish this on anyone. This is horrible. You're strong so I hope you feel protected too, because strong people are always overlooked. A huge hug for you and your family (if y'all like hugs only...)
Happy Mother's Day to you! I've been watching you with Niko and wasn't aware of your other children. Your story has touched me, and I think you are a shero to have the strength to tell your story that may help someone else!
I'm so sorry that you and your daughter went through that trauma. I remember when my daughter was a few weeks old and she was colicky....it's so stressful when you can't comfort your crying baby. I reached out to another mother who assured me that sometimes this happens even when you have nursed your baby and they have a dry diaper. I would hold her and rock her hoping she would feel the love even when she was crying. Her father would never hold her if she was upset. He hadn't been around babies and he didn't feel like he could deal with the stress. Fortunately that stage didn't last very long. I can't imagine how angry you must have been that he shook your daughter and broke her arm. He deserved to go to prison for hurting her. Thank you for bringing awareness to this issue.
You are a champion; and one who has braved many storms; and your husband is a gem. Your family is here to show a higher side of humanism. Clearly, the way that you and your husband nurture your daughter who is an individual w/autism; and your other children is truly indicative that you were designed for THE GENTLE LIFE. As well, prayers are extended on behalf of the man who subjected his child to this circumstance. All is going to work out favorably and progressively for you and your family. The Very Best ins NOW and YET TO COME!
Precious, as usual, I love your storytelling. I remember when the older generations would put a crying baby in a room, close the door and dare you to go in. They were ALL loving and experienced mothers. Your story just made me love and respect them 100x more. Thank you ❤
You have gone through so much as a woman and a mother. So much more than you have shared. Lord bless this precious woman with hope, peace, joy, and strength. Bless her children and her very life. In Jesus' name, i pray, Amen.
Oh my God I am so sorry this happened to your daughter...You both are strong and you guys have a beautiful soul! may God bless you and your loving family ❤🙏
Thank god you did not loose her, im so glad that she is here 💕 Edit: you are an amazing mum to all of your children! Your absolutely amazing and i love that, your understand them, you take care of them, your all amazing in every single way, i love your channel 💕🌈♾️🙌🏻✨
This makes me cry. So sad. It’s the judgement for me. No one things done would hurt their own flesh and blood. My heart breaks for anyone who has a child who suffers abuse. Glad the father confessed and u hope he gets the help he needs.
Thank you for sharing this very difficult experience you went through. Your precious daughter is a beautiful young girl who's blessed to have a mother like you. It's wonderful to share how your lovely family is thriving in you care (including Mikko's daddy who sings so beautifully!). Blessings to you all ❤
horror, sorry dear, how could someone do something like that to a baby. I hope you don't blame yourself too much. and the most important thing mckenzie has no damage except for the trauma. so painful sry
Thank you so much for sharing your story. Now I understand why you're so patient and loving to Mikko. I hope this "Mother's Day" 2024 was wonderful for you. 💐
You are an amazing mother. I look up to you for your strength. May you and your family be blessed. Your children are so blessed to have you as a mother. Continue to love your babies and advocate for mamas that need help. I don’t know you, but I can feel your calming energy, strength, and love through your videos.
😱😱😱wow, I'm very shocked to hear this!!!😭😭😭I'm so deeply sorry!!!❤❤❤I'm almost throwing up, How very, very shocking!!😭😭😭 Many prayers and much love to her and to you!!!❤❤❤❤
Just a technical thing: the background music is too loud for the intensity of your voice and the background noise is by far better to listen to instead of the music because it‘s really in the background. Thx for sharing the story
Great vlog!! Thankyou you bringing this topic up cuz like you said it can happen 2 anyone & sometimes its a babysitter that will do this stuff besides a parent..
You are amazing to share this story. God bless you and prayers for others in a similar situation. Also I pray every day for children who have no one to pray for them.
Thank you for sharing your experience with us. Your children are absolutely beautiful! MaKenzie looks like a little model and she was such a cute baby! You’re an amazing Mom and you should be saluted everyday!!! Good job young lady! I salute you 🫡
