Last summer, a ꜰᴀᴛᴀʟ ᴛʀᴀɢᴇᴅʏ sᴛʀᴜᴄᴋ the Aguilar-Alvarez couple, as a ᴅʀᴜɴᴋ driver fatally ran over 35-year-old Yesenia, who was pregnant with their first child together, on a small promenade not far from their home. The male member of the couple, James, watched helplessly as his partner fought with his last strength for the life of their common child in the hospital, and then gave up the fight.

The baby, who was later named Adalyn Rose, was fortunately delivered by ᴄᴀᴇsᴀʀᴇᴀɴ sᴇᴄᴛɪᴏɴ. Since then, James has been trying with all his might to process the ᴛʀᴀɢᴇᴅʏ he experienced and to be a good father to his little girl.

The sʜᴏᴄᴋɪɴɢ ᴛʀᴀɢᴇᴅʏ stirred up a lot of dust in the local media at the time, and since then many people have assured James that if he needs help with anything at any time, there is someone he can turn to.

James prepared a unique and touching surprise for his daughter’s first birthday, which he did not hesitate to share with his followers. With the help of the X&V Photography team, James recreated the photos taken with his beloved before the ᴛʀᴀɢᴇᴅʏ with the help of his daughter.

The little girl tries to bring back her mother’s memory in a dress similar to her former mother’s in such a way that these images deeply touch most members of the audience.

The overall effect of the images is simply soul-crushing, it speaks of passing and the possibility of new life at the same time.

“Adalyn, I know that if your mother was here, she would be the happiest person on Earth!” wrote the grieving father next to the pictures. “She would be so excited for your birthday. That’s why I try to do everything to make your dreams come true. Happy birthday baby! Mommy and Daddy love you!”

Isn’t it touching how much a single event can change everything, that ᴅ.ᴇᴀ.ᴛʜ and life almost go hand in hand? God bless little Adalyn!
