“I can’t even put into words how loved you are. I can’t stop seeing your big smile everywhere I go, I hear your laugh and babbles all day and it just breaks my heart you’re physically not here,” Ferguson continued. “Your room is empty, your stuff untouched. There’s no pain that can ever compare to losing a child & I can’t believe it happened to us.”
Ferguson did not reveal further details about why Asher was in the ICU. He was roughly 15 months old when he died.
“Mama and dada love you so much, you brought us so much joy, and made our family complete. I have never known how much love and happiness I could have until you came into our life,” Ferguson wrote. “Everyday has been torture without you, this pain is unbearable. I still feel like you’re going to reappear but our home is so quiet and empty without you.”
