A child is a gift from heaven by God. They are treasured for they are special. They should be nurtured and be loved by their parents. But how could baby Brianna’s parents take her life away?

Brianna Lopez was born on February 14, 2002 to  her mother Stephanie Lopez and father Andy Walters. She was a beautiful baby not until her life was cut short in 5 months. For the whole duration of her life, she has suffered a lot of hardships that not a single child should ever experience and yet from her infant stage, her parents had abused her. She has bruises from head to toe, lacerations on her fingers, concussions and bites all over her body – all done by her parents. She was even thrown up in the air several times and they just let her fall on the floor. She even suffered from shaken baby syndrome but none of them cared.

Above is the heart-melting video of baby Brianna. I wasn’t able to stop myself from crying when I watched it, I thought of my children suddenly and felt sorry in times that I get mad to them but never will I be like Brianna’s parents! I will never afford to lose them! Brianna’s death is the worst child abuse ever recorded and her death opened many doors for change. Child abuse will not happen if there are people willing to help. Not a single chance will be missed if there are people listening and putting everything in action to prevent the abuse. I will admit that I am so taken by this story and that I couldn’t take off Brianna’s picture in my head.

I just hope that for those who get to watch this video or even read her story, I hope that Brianna has touched a part of your heart and make your eyes wide open to see what is happening in your surrounding and make yours ears hear all the cries of children/people who needs help. WE are not perfect but we can DO something to make this world a better place.

Rest in Peace baby Brianna.
