Well.. yes and no. Yes because everyone deserves life, and deserve to be united with children. No because no one deserves to live as an empty mind.

i dont even think he was sentient

It wasnt aware of that love, not even in the most basic possible definition of the term aware. When mom held him, coddled him, kissed him, there was just nothing going on in his head.

Mom and baby got to experience love. Hope mom is doing okay. She is an angel.

@@moxyliebtjan 🤡🫵

A miracle that the thing survived?

Amber Black Agreed. What a sick world we live in.

WAFFEN COLLIDER You are absolutely correct. Not only merciful but completely logical. Why would one intentionally bring a person into the world who cannot even perform the basic functions of self care AND is not capable of contributing to society in any way, shape or form. Just why...

But is his brain still plastic tho? During infancy, the brain experiences a rapid growth in the number of synaptic connections it has, peaking at approximately 15,000 at the age of 2-3 (Gopnik et al. 1999). So would it be too soon to give him a conclusion? Also as EB'S case have shown us our brain is plastic, functions can be taken over by other parts of our brain. So will this kid have a chance if he undergo intense rehabilitation?

@WeeStrom CO Guy Oh, Hitler and Nazis! If anyone suggests that they feel bad that a baby so severely disabled and having continuous seizures gets exploited by his narcissistic parents they automatically become Nazis, right? Great defense!

J. H. they didnt "intentionally" do it. like wtf do you think they wanted this?

I wonder why...

Internet Police why? I would maybe say this to parents of criminals and corrupted, violent persons, not to parents of a disabled baby. Actually, I would not say this to any parent at all. It is their choice, you are judging their choice and I don't think you\we have the right to judge.

@@francescaf.5916 wym you would say that to parents of criminals?

Francesca F. stfu woman

Vinnie Gonzalez Actually no. Not even to parents of criminals because it might not even be their fault or responsibility if a person grows up and becomes a criminal. Education is important, but I don't think we should blame parents all the time. A criminal often has a personal responsibility. So, I would never say to any parent that she should have aborted. Not even to Hitler's mother. Abortion is a choice, keeping a baby and love her the way she is, is also a choice, so why do we have to morally judge other people all the time?!

*ABOUT THAT*

nayr I feel she did the best she could, not wanting to hurt Jaxon’s parents and crush them irreparably. They’ve chosen to bring this baby into the world not knowing his actual quality of life, virtually brainless. Truly, I feel she weighed her words carefully knowing the import others would glean from them.

@Scort some people were expecting a % I found humor i the comment knowing im not the only one thinking tht.

TaunTaun's Mr.President no misdiagnosis here. Jaxon has no brain. There’s your diagnosis. They are lying and should be held accountable

@TaunTaun's Mr.President You're either really dumb, just uneducated or ignorant to the fact that Jaxon has a brain stem. This controls breathing, heartbeat, swallowing & a few other functions. The brainstem controls messages back & forth to different parts of the 2 hemispheres where THINKING, LEARNING, sight, hearing are supposed to go Jaxon does NOT have these parts of his brain. So who's stupid TaunTaun. I really hate stupid people who put false info on to the internet where dummies like you believe it. Go back to school & when U have MY education & experience you can tell me why Im wrong.

Yeah. And we learned that she doesn't have a crystal ball. I was surprised. They aren't that expensive. I got mine for like 70 bucks. A doctor should easily be able to afford one.

A lot of doctors seem to not have morals... they think of things in a scientific, factual light... which can be good... not in situations like this... the doctors demeanor screamed, this baby should not be here..

bishes be mad I’m not religious whatsoever

bishes be mad I said morals, nothing about god or religion

@@thuggwaffle8825 A big part of being a doctor by profession is being faced with moral decisions like this one. This child can't see, hear, move, talk, feel and is most likely not even capable of having any sort of thought process at all and on top of that is constantly having seizures. This kid's parents exploited his disability for their own profit, then proceeded to get divorced and leave him at a care facility where he will remain for the rest of his days constantly drugged and being taken care of by strangers. Do you think that's morally right? Maybe the doctor was right after all.

Wgat does that mean!?

The parents are just as brainless as the baby

That means that the babys got​ nothing going on behind the eyes its basically brain dead exept its got no brain left besides the brain stem wich just keeps it breathing @JenniferKelly6669

Not true. The kid is 5 years old now and the parents divorced and put him in a nursing home with minimal care

Acts 2:27 Because thou wilt not leave my soul in hell, neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy one to see corruption. Mark 9:43 And if thy hand offend thee,cut it off it is better for thee to enter into life maimed, than having two hands to go into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched. Jude 1:7 Even as sodom and Gomorrah, and the cities about them in like manner, giving themselves over to fornication and going after strange flesh, are set forth for an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire.

I am the Lord your God. You must not do as they do in Egypt, where you used to live, and you must not do as they do in the land of canaan, where I am bringing you. Do not follow their practices. You must obey my laws and be careful to follow my decrees. I am the Lord your God. Keep my decrees and laws, for the person who obeys them will live by them. I am the Lord. No one is to approach any close relative to have sexual relations. I am the Lord. Do not dishonor your father by having sexual relations with your mother. She is your mother, do not have relations with her. Do not have sexual relations with your father’s wife, that would dishonor your father. Do not have sexual relations with your sister, either your father’s daughter or your mother’s daughter, whether she was born in the same home or elsewhere. Do not have sexual relations with your son’s daughter or your daughter’s daughter, that would dishonor you. Do not have sexual relations with the daughter of your father’s wife, born to your father, she is your sister. Do not have sexual relations with your father’s sister, she is your father’s close relative. Do not have sexual relations with your mother’s sister, because she is your mother’s close relative. Do not dishonor your father’s brother by approaching his wife to have sexual relations, she is your aunt. Do not have sexual relations with your daughter-in-law. She is your son’s wife, do not have relations with her. Do not have sexual relations with your brother’s wife, that would dishonor your brother. Do not have sexual relations with both a woman and her daughter. Do not have sexual relations with either her son’s daughter or her daughter’s daughter, they are her close relatives. That is wickedness. Do not take your wife’s sister as a rival wife and have sexual relations with her while your wife is living. Do not approach a woman to have sexual relations during the uncleanness of her monthly period. Do not have sexual relations with your neighbor’s wife and defile yourself with her. Do not give any of your children to be sacrificed to Molek, for you must not profane the name of your God. I am the Lord. Do not have sexual relations with a man as one does with a woman, that is detestable. Do not have sexual relations with an animal and defile yourself with it. A woman must not present herself to an animal to have sexual relations with it, that is a perversion. Do not defile yourselves in any of these ways, because this is how the nations that I am going to drive out before you became defiled. Even the land was defiled, so I punished it for its sin, and the land vomited out its inhabitants. But you must keep my decrees and my laws. The native-born and the foreigners residing among you must not do any of these detestable things, for all these things were done by the people who lived in the land before you, and the land became defiled. And if you define the land, it will vomit you out as it vomited out the nations that were before you. Everyone who does any of these detestable things-such persons must be cut off from their people. Keep my requirements and do not follow any of the detestable customs that were practiced before you came and do not defile yourselves with them. I am the Lord your God. Are you sure he supports rape? And same sex? God in the Old Testament, commanded rapist to be stoned to death, as an example of what’s good and what’s bad. Thankful in the New Testament, you can be forgiven for such horrible sins.

@@amoeba_in_glasses Can you prove your claim please. The burden of proof is on you. In case you don't know: Burden of proof- the obligation to prove one's assertion.

@@Carpaintry_of_God Just google the “Jaxon strong foundation”. They used this child as a cash cow. They got hundreds of thousands in donations. They quit their jobs, bought a new house, vehicles, vacations….why are you asking someone to prove this to you? If someone doesn’t put everything written about these parents you’re going to refuse to believe it? Once they were found out, they separated and out him in a nursing home which is where he died. He was lucky if they visited him once a month. They got divorced and Brittany got pregnant pretty quick by another man and “addy” Brandon has had 4 or more DUIs since he dropped his son off at the nursing home. Awesome Christian’s, right?

@@Carpaintry_of_God A "financial crisis" becomes a cash windfall Their initial campaign - intended to cover urgent medical expenses and to allow Brittany to quit her job and remain at home with Jaxon - reached its modest $35K goal almost immediately. They then doubled the goal to $70K and continued to solicit donations. Again the target was met within months, but the Buells refused to shut down the GoFundMe page, citing ongoing financial need...and eventually, when pressured by the public, promising to donate the excess funds to charity. (It was during this time, in March 2015, that they purchased their new-construction home in Tavares.) The final total on the Buells' GoFundMe page the day they closed was more than $176,000. To this day there is no concrete evidence that they have ever donated any money to charity at all, ever. Shortly after the GFM fundraiser ended, news began to circulate that Brandon - who had previously been employed as the assistant manager of a local bank - had also quit his job. Also around this time the Buells started dropping hints on their Facebook page, which by now had accumulated a rabid following of around 378,500, about an upcoming "exciting development!!" On April 27, 2016 the Buells officially announced the creation of the Jaxon Strong Foundation: a so-called charity which they described as "a not-for-profit organization that is ready to receive donations" (their website was initially entirely blank aside from a link to their online donations form). Many people raised questions regarding the Buells' plans for the donated funds, and the legality of the organization itself: there was no sign of a Jaxon Strong Foundation anywhere on the IRS or Florida Department of Consumer Services websites. There were people who judged Jaxon’s parents saying they were irresponsible and cruel for letting the child live with such a serious illness. Instead of clarifying - as one would expect of a legitimate charity - Brandon and Brittany began systematically deleting not only all questions on their Facebook page, but banning the commenters altogether. In light of their increasingly deceptive conduct and realizing that a large-scale scam was potentially in the works, I organized several other individuals into a private, vetted G+ taskforce (since the Buells' followers have a history of harassing and even stalking any outspoken critics). We began investigating the statutory approval of the Foundation and found that the Buells were NOT authorized to solicit charitable donations well past May 16th, and in fact had never even bothered to file the application in the first place until April 28th - the day AFTER they announced that the Foundation was "ready to receive donations" and the day that they (and many of their fans) berated us for questioning the legality of their organization. “For our family, it’s also normal to feed our baby by feeding tube. It’s normal to embrace him as he goes through his startle seizures multiple times a day. It’s normal to look at Jaxon and see a perfectly created boy and other babies truly do look weird and oversized to us,” Brandon said.

I hate when people act as if paying someone to murder your child is the "right" thing to do.... When a person aborts a child they are sparring themselves hardships, not the child.....

Heather Miller that's completely subjective. All of our opinions are. Don't act like you know what's best for some child. This child doesn't even have the capability to make this decision for himself. Couldn't even protest if he wants to. It's like keeping a person alive on life support.

He is a gift from God. Just because he has disabilities is no reason to say he had no life, no purpose or meaning. He has all that. Aborting babies because they are deemed a burden is so cruel. Life comes with crosses we must carry.

Beth Lipscomb I disagree, sometimes babies should be aborted before they gain self awareness. They may come out with some kind of deformation that will make them suffer until they die.

Allen what if they are just willing to look past his challenges and see him as a person rather than a burden.

Gabe Duda This baby isn’t living to see his 5th birthday

The parents are far from sweet. steemit.com/life/@sarah.riedel/jaxon-strong-exposing-the-reality

Bobby Gary the baby is already dead

nope apparently they divorced and set the baby for an adoption

It's amazing that he had a chance...and seemed to be mostly happy, and pain free during his life. His body will be studied, and other kids will benefit from his life in the future.

Good riddance, it was an ugly creature

@@yomama3926 Yes, I'm sure you are hideous.

I'm sorry did you expect a different result or outcome? Don't be foolish

@@jamesbernard6841 why are you being rude about it?

Wow really? Unbelievable 🤦‍♀️😪🤬

“We didn’t think about termination. We’re Christians.” Yeah, the delusional kind who ignore medical advice. Don’t get me wrong, I feel genuinely sorry for them and their son and I do support religion and faith. I have worked in a facility for people with disabilities. Yes, many can live a satisfying live with some support - I am glad that they exist and I got to meet them. But they are conscious and can express themselves to an extend, communicate, state when they feel pain or need something. However, this little guy here only has enough brain to move really; will likely never walk, talk or eat on his own. It’s even unclear how much of his environment he can feel/ make sense of; if he’ll ever have memories or feel joy. And now the good Christians gave him into care. Surely they loved him, I don’t doubt that. But it was also arrogance and a severe lack of education that led to this. When it got hard, faith wasn’t enough anymore, I guess.

Alexa, play despacito.

@@ntk8787 Why on Earth do you "support religion and faith" when you literally explained why you shouldn't.

Where's the citation? I googled his name and found nothing.

he looks like he is constantly seizing.

A slight fucking seizure, good god.

All kinds of people have seizures of varying degrees.. what's your point?

@Ryan Schob - Good info processors need few words!

@@therofthew gotcha. You didn't have a point.

Great, that's your opinion. He wasn't in severe pain, let the parents have their own say.

​@@BOYHUNF No, you must consider that a bunch of random RU-vid commenters who have no medical expertise and/or involvement with the baby know much better than the parents and the doctors who worked with them!

It’s there opinion get over it

@@KarizmaJohnson-qr2lp I said what I would do. Get over it.

If your'e SEVERELY Disabled, then you aren't exactly THRIVING. These parents were too selfish to abort and do the right thing.

Bob Judd Abortion means you don’t want the challenges of having children with disabilities and some disabilities are invisible like mine. I was diagnosed after the age 5 even though I was premature at birth. You can never get of disability of the person. The person has to deal with the disability for life.

Bob Judd I agree. And I swear I’m not trying to be mean about it..I feel awful for this child, ‘slight’ seizures, all the meds, zero quality of life?, pretending he can hit the button in the light toy? ‘Sit up like a big boy, He grins, so proud of himself..., his dad: “he responds”, really??? Good lord; it’s incredibly sad...along the lines of the ‘Hartley hooligans’, those girls have since passed- at 13 & 17 (but they were paraded around like circus freaks-it was so appalling) his screeching is no sign of him enjoying any sort of life....very sad to say the least, they’re grasping at straws if they think he said “I love you”, & they reply: he’s ‘Doing so well?” Really? These parents are delusional..

@@ChristinaOstil115 ok but these disablities are not invisible, they are very visible and putting the child in a position to constantly suffer. This is one of the only cases where abortion would have been the best choice.

Not everyone who is severely disabled is unable to thrive.

Yeah, but the parents have so much love for their baby, and they would horrified if they lost him.

Yeah it doesn’t seem like a miracle

sid * does anyone have a scientific explicating as to why the parents are so attached to him? (Can’t find a better explanation) I see videos and they’re like “wow he’s smiling” but all his body is doing is seizing up. It’s sad

Gentle Stick Man well he probably has the intelligence of a mouse so he is not conscious nor can he see or hear or feel or learn or virtually anything.

He seizured from birth til death. His brain couldnt interpret the stimuli his body was experiencing. Probably sensory overload and EXTREMELY painful. Notice how he panics when in water or receiving alot of touching or hearing loud sounds. That's his body saying "my nerves are cranked up to 11 and reality is encumbered by incredible amounts of pain. If he could talk he would probably curse his mother for not aborting him. I'm not cruel. His parents are. On top of the pain he seizes every 10 min or so. Like a computer constantly rebooting itself. We all need to rethink these "miracles" it is most likely that he was in a TON OF PAIN.

bro he didnt even know it was in pain bruh@@trteeerryfse-wy2ww i feel bad but still bro like imagine a 2 day old baby losing his parents and then adopted and 11 years later doesnt know. and then imagine an 11 year old who loses his parents and suffers for the rest of his life its that same in this case and also he is born without a brain so i dont think he really knew what was going on so atleast it didnt have somewhat of a consciousness also when did he die??

​@@trteeerryfse-wy2ww You certainly know better than any doctors or specialists who were involved with the child!

The baby is a he. Not an "it."

breh the image of the thumbnail looks funny tbh lol also dude its an it cos it doesnt know anything thats happening so it probs didnt even feel any pain (may did) and wont even remember it do u remember any pain when u were a baby? exactly u dont@@flamu9183

So what do you think? They should do go take him out in the backyard and stone him. ! You really need to learn about the real purpose of life.

@@tiffany3294 Yea you are definitely being dramatic for brownie points. We arent going to play on emotions Im speaking on truth. He is alive but he isnt living his quality of life is diminished that is the truth. Nowhere in my statement did I say he should be mistreated or killed now that he is here. They didnt consider the quality of HIS life only the emotional impact loosing him would have on theirs. Now you can get mad if you want but thats not going to change my view. You dont even know the real purpose of life so how can you tell someone else what they need to learn?? I suggest you take your napoleon moment elsewhere cause this aint what you want.

Oh yeah and God didn't think, here we have great parents so let me give them a baby for ever, instead of making a baby too quick that has defects because your god was too in a hurry to go watch a child get raped. Fcku your imaginary evil god

They ended up putting him in a care facility and r now being charged for charity fraud. As well as right after he passed they both divorced immediately and started new families. Smh

@TaunTaun's Mr.President sentient means "to be self aware and capable of feeling" you absolute melon

TaunTaun's Mr.President lmaooo

TaunTaun's Mr.President Crying doesn’t mean emotion necessarily, it’s pretty much a primitive reflex . He can’t even memorize things properly , so his emotions probably meet the ones of a baby chicken , you egghead.

TaunTaun's Mr.President Here moron , i googled it for you since my simple phrasing cannot get through your thick skull , “Crying is a primitive behaviour shared across mammals, whose governing mechanisms are rooted in the evolutionarily ancient brain stem - infant rats, cats, and humans have all been shown to be able to cry even when the forebrain, which evolved much later, is absent.”

TaunTaun's Mr.President You might want to go change your diapers , it looks like you wrote your gibberish while crying . The child only has a brain stem , he is in a vegetative state . You showcased your stupidity when you put words in my mouth , i never said crying means they’re mentally dead , I said that he has the bare minimum to be able to cry , a brain stem . You obviously don’t know what you are talking about.

according to a more recent study the baby is still alive and somehow grew the rest of the brain (atleast as of 2019)

Dreadful existence. He seized from birth til death. His brain couldnt interpret the stimuli his body was experiencing. Probably sensory overload and EXTREMELY painful. Notice how he panics when in water or receiving alot of touching or hearing loud sounds or bright lights. That's his body saying "my nerves are cranked up to 11 and reality is encumbered by incredible amounts of pain." It was most likely a feedback loop like a bad dream of sensations puzzled and mashed together in a brain randonly firing off like fireworks or a psychic hedgemaze of delirum for 5 long HORRIBLE years.

Thank you for your kind comment.

SmartStart24 Hate to tell you this but last i heard the parents god divorced,and this child is in a special home now,and the mother is expecting another baby with new husband... So...

Best response yet!!!

Other babies do?

dev They feel don’t they?

@@dev-sc7ud i think other babies would have enough brain capacity for basic self awareness, such as knowing they have hands and know their reflection. But because this poor baby dosent have much of a brain he cannot comprehend himself, his surroundings, or anything. He cannot remember anything after about a minute and is only living off his brain stem (which controlls the most basic muscle contractions, such as breathing and heartbeat) as well as special feeding tubes. I dont want to be a pessimist, but he may see his end sometime soon, if he hasnt already.

When I was a baby I didn't know I had a body either. I was just "somewhere" close to my mom.
