35 years ago my husband and I adopted an abandoned baby. He was found with the umbilical cord still attached, at the base of a dumpster in 26 degree winter weather. He is a wonderful man, graduated valedictorian, earned a college degree, served in the Marines, and is a firefighter. He was the influence behind the Texas law making it legal to abandon babies at fire stations, etc. There is zero excuse to abandon babies. We located the woman who found our son and she sent him cards for the rest of her life.
You and your husband are the people that give and renew my hope in humanity. You have reared a wonderful man. May peace glide beside all of you; may you feel the warmth of the sun on your face; may you be cared for as you cared; may this son of yours always be safe; and may others on this weary Earth see your example of love. peace
Has your son tried to find his egg and sperm donors' families? As I try to put myself in his shoes, I can think of several good reasons why he might not want to, but I can think of even more good reasons he might. You sound very proud of your son, and you very much deserve to be.
This baby had no chance of surviving if she wasn’t found when she was. The heat of the day, without being fed, or cared for would have caused her death easily. This young couple saved her life. Terrible that someone just left this poor baby like she was garbage.
@@theoryofpersonality1420more likely a coyote.. especially if there was any blood on the baby from the birth. Coyptes sense the vulnerable, that’s what they do as predators .

@@Mikehunthertz51 What an odd person you must be to take offence at me saying creature. According to the Bible, we're all God's creatures or, have you never been to church? Wow back at ya.

Only "Decent" ??? You seem like a decent creature, This woman & her husband are heros! This BABY could have died ! He/She was place on a sidewalk in the sun! I can tell how disconnected you are.
My husband found an abandoned girl baby when he was about 13 years old, around 1964. Him and a friend were walking by a goodwill bin that people had filled to overflowing. They heard a noise and thought it was a radio. After a little digging, they found the baby. It was even written up in the local newspaper. He would love to find out what happened to her.
I had a lump In my throat listening to this Lady. I could hear her sadness, anger and fear for that poor baby. The image of that little baby under a towel will never leave her. I just hope she realizes what a blessing she and her family were for that baby.
This child's mother could be a missing/kidnapped and endangered child/teen or a woman long held captive! We've seen the stories nationwide. It is curious to have seen a young male abandoning the child.
This was literally the first thing I thought. There's some woman being held captive and forced to have a baby outside of a hospital/without medical services, and the baby was thrown away to help hide the crime.
It’s hardly heroic to find an infant and call the police. Heroism requires much more than making a phone call. Good people? Of course. Heroes? I think not.
@@xxxx-qo9dh have you seen this world we live in. What would be the most sensible thing to do is lost to a lot of people these days. They are heroes cause responded without hesitation to find help. I'm sorry you don't feel the same... it's just good to see good applied against an evil. It gives hope.
The people who need to know the safe haven law don't know the safe haven law. There needs to be a Nationwide campaign getting out the message about the safe haven law so this kind of thing can be avoided.
Jesus christ...don't be so over dramatic "There needs to be a nation-wide campaign...!" Just start to teach about these things in grades 6-7-8 Health class and make sure it's "on the test". Simple solution.
This is Harris County TEXAS! They recently ended the choice of abortion so this is going to happen so much more. What did Pro-Life people think??? What, take away people's rights AND leave them no choices OR good solutions??? I mean really, what did they expect??? To tell them..."you have no right to abort, but oh by the way, tenderly care for the baby that you didn't want, and don't dare abuse the child you never wanted, and who forced you to give birth bcus you didn't have the right to abort." Oh, no that may cost more many, like building unwed mothers homes (like 1950s-1970s unwed mothers homes). It might cost more $$$ to vigorously advertise for good foster parents, and change better adoption guidelines that doesn't include adoptive parents that have to be so wealthy. (And, forces American parents to go overseas to adopt bcus adoption guidelines in the US demand parents have so much money). BUT... That's right, Pro-Life people can take people's rights away from other's, then go to church and pretend that they did something wonderful!!!!!!!
@@user-fc2xk3uv8y I highly doubt the adults that would do this to their own newborn child would care about what some billboard says. They know what they're doing is wrong. If they'd been told about their options at a younger age, maybe they'd have made different choices.
If the Lord had anything to do with it the baby never would have been left exposed out in the heat.Who's to say when and if anyone would be walking there.
More than anything, my brave mother, you SAVED the life of that baby. No matter the trauma, or the ptsd, or the anger you harbor toward the woman we know nothing about. God sent you down that path.
It’s 2024, surely people know that an unwanted baby can be left at a fire station, police station etc. That young man lacked courage and knowledge. Thank goodness this lovely family took their usual stroll, that baby is now safe. What an emotional interview….❤❤
Kids not knowing how to deal with a teen pregnancy. These things should be taught at schools. Thank heavens the baby was found soon after she was abandoned.
As Americans, we need to ask ourselves why someone would feel so desperate, hopeless and fearful as to abandon a new born infant along a walking trail in extremely hot weather. I am so grateful the baby was found by this family, and that she will be adopted by a loving caring family who will love her with all their hearts.
I don't think the guy was desperate, hopeless or fearful. I think he was a degenerate person with no moral sense. Leaving an hours-old infant to the elements in a TOWEL shows no empathy as well as a belief that the infant was disposable. Makes me wonder if the guy has committed other murders.
So upsetting!! Shame on people that discarded the baby like trash. But blessed that this family rescued the newborn. So thankful they reacted in a positive way. Thankful for Law Enforcements quick response. Weeping tears of thankfulness!!❤❤🙏🙏🙏
Bless this good family. God put them there to save this baby. I know the thoughts of finding a newborn are still traumatic, but I hope they will come to terms and realize God sees how they care and love for their little one, so He knew they would save this sweet, innocent baby that others were willing to abandon. God bless you always and for saving this little baby.
There are so many ways to give a unwanted newborn a chance for a full life, leave them at a police station, fire department or hospital. How could anyone with an ounce of humanity do this, the Angels were looking after this baby by having this wonderful couple find her. Just so happy she is safe.
Thank God you were in the right place at that exact moment. Unbelievable how anyone could abandon a newborn on the side of the road. Absolutely disgusting. So glad you were there to help. The baby is blessed to be alive because of that family.
Pretty demented that someone can just dump a baby like that. I'm glad there was a positive ending to this story at least. Thank you so much to the folks that found it.
My children are grown and gone, I loved being a mom. I would have taken it in and nurtured loved and cared for it. So happy they went out for a family walk early.
@@Hollywoodbearluv I have a hearing problem from childhood. My husband and I went to a meeting for fostering left our names. I could not hear at their meeting so I’m glad I was able to have kids as the hoops to jump through are more than I can possibly do. I haven’t heard back from them. I guess you can say it’s hard for someone like me. I’m glad it was in my the lords hands and not organizations.
the young man who abandoned the baby was probably panicking and didn't "want anyone to know" but when found, should be held fully accountable and made an example of. He had SO MANY OPTIONS and chose the cowardly way out for himself CHOOSING to let a newborn suffer and possibly die.
Sounds like the mother knew ppl walked tht route daily n someone would find the baby soon prob a young couple. I’m not saying it’s right by no means but sometimes we just don’t think🤦♀️as humans especially under stressful situations. I’m just so glad the baby is ok. I wish tht baby a wonderful happy healthy future. U got this little one🤗💕
@@honeycandy5741 dead mother doesn’t qualify as abandoning her child, I am talking about mothers who throw their babies in dumpsters or outside somewhere, like what happened to this baby. No one can force anyone to do anything they don’t want to. You can always put the baby up for adoption or take it to a fire station, police station or orphanage. That’s pure evil what happened to this baby and inhumane.
I hope the mum is okay. It makes it a little more worrying that is was a man who abandoned the baby. Of course there are a million different things that could be going on, but it immediately makes me wonder if maybe it's a domestic situation where she's being controlled and isn't allowed to leave.
Maybe. I think her backyard backs the trail, and she watched this family and this woman for a long time. I thought perhaps she wanted her to raise the baby, so the bf abandoned it where she was found. It was just as easy to drop her off at a hospital. And if he wanted to kill her, plenty of other options than having her bake in the sun. That's why I think this family was chosen.
Fire stations who try to force huge questionnaires. And, some cities try to track parents to press criminal charges. Anyway, the kid left the baby and a good area and I bet you that the kid hid nearby to make sure the baby was found safe.
Yes but some people like underage teens won’t know that unless educated beforehand, given the resources or researching themselves. Sometimes these young girls hide the pregnancy from their family and end up giving birth alone in their bathroom, outside or random public places. I’ve seen other similar news stories like this over the years. Sometimes the father isn’t even aware of the pregnancy.
@@TessE777 Exactly what fire station tries to make anyone fill out a questionnaire? If they do their going against the Safe Haven Law which is NO questions asked...period.
As this baby was abandoned by a man with placenta still attached, I wonder where her mother is and is she alright. Did this man take the baby from an unwilling mother who was too weak to stop him? Why aren’t people showing concern for the mother as well as the baby? It could be that she seriously needs help too. 😢
Pure evil. To drop a defenseless infant on the ground, to suffer; then die is premeditated evil. So thankful this family was there to save this child. I do wonder about the birth mother. Is she another victim, or complicit?
Horrfic. As a new dad, I can't imagine our baby boy being hungry or too hot/cold, much less terrified in pain and alone. 😢 Poor baby, hope he has a great life. ❤ I'm happy to set up a gofundme for the little guy.
They should teach this in schools or have an awareness campaign that there are safe haven laws that make it very easy to get a child to safety. So sad. But very glad the family went on a walk in the morning.
I’m so happy and grateful this family took that walk today. I can see how upset the woman is, saying she can’t get the picture of finding the baby out of her head. This could have been so much worse and I’m thankful for the family being in the right place at the right time ❤
Please tell the young people that you know that you can safely surrender a newborn baby without any repercussions or criminal charges. You don't have to give your name or have them contact your family. Do it safely and avoid prison. Hospitals fire stations and police stations will all accept unwanted newborns😢
I would’ve adopted the baby after I reported the child. That poor baby did not deserve to be thrown out there like a dog. I’m grateful that someone found that innocent baby.
When they find the parents they should be charged with attempted murder. I don't care your circumstances, there are a lot of other options like the woman mentioned. Zero excuse for this.
SOMEONE KNOWS the gal who birthed this baby...some neighbor will notice that the pregnant gal next door is now suddenly a lot slimmer and theres NO BABY with her??? huh? that will raise suspicions and someones BOUND to report that...
Someone may not have known they were even pregnant. It happens. Our society is going to have to do better!!! Men, women AND teens are going to have to start facing REALITY and care for the babies bring created. We all have to help in this world. We can do better.
It could be a teenage girl who hid her pregnancy and gave birth at home. Possibly a brother or boyfriend who was too young to drive who abandoned the baby where someone would be sure to find it but you are correct, this was extreme dangerous for the baby's well-being to be left in the sun or where an animal or something else might have hurt or the baby or worse
Whatever person left the baby on a well traveled path , knew they could not care for the baby and did them a favor .The parent were obviously not mentaly stable enough to care for it
Exactly. But being it was a young man I'm really hoping it was the father or a friend who was actually helping a woman/girl & not because she was being trafficked. I hope they can quietly find who did this & find out if she's ok or needs to be rescued. I'm really worried for her. But at least the baby is ok now.
@@IllObserveAndReport I'd be Proud to Have that precious little gift. ... but not hearing you doing the first thing to make her life better. ...had it been up to you that little girl would only be another number in a box
obviously , but right , is the mother ok , or perhaps they both were so drugged up they didnt care, a lest they did the best fot the baby, even though they did so abruptly. Could have even been a child who placed it there
Omg...a guy dropped the baby girl off there! Where is the mother? I hope, she is ok?.. ln regards to the baby girl.. Until this matter gets straingten out? She'll need love & care after being checked at the hospital..!!?? I can temporary take care of her..IF its necessary...? Im willing to. Im in the state of Virginia. Im a single mother..of an adult son.. l work in the medical career. She will have all and in need care as possible, but most important, this baby girl will have a.. HOME!!!!...😔...thank you. Sincerely.
CPS will place her with a family. If they don't find the mother or father & the baby is put up for adoption you would have to apply just like everyone else. Less of a chance though, since you are not in this state.
Well at least they left it on a walking trail expecting someone to find it, wrapped in a blanket protected from the sun. That is much better than a garbage can and shows at least some type of humanity going on. Clearly desperation of some sort. Economic times are worsening, we will see more of this.
Our society needs to not encourage this. All babies want their real mothers & fathers. People are going to need to face reality and everyone needs to help a bit. Happy Father's Day to the real men.
So right ! I wrote the same thing... at least the parents, as mentally unstable as they were , knew that they could not care for the baby and left it on a well walked path !
No, it isn't! Women and girls are now being forced to give birth to children they don't want, so expect more of this to happen because of that! The Economy is good, and getting better every day and has NOTHING to do with this! Vote BLUE everyone!!
THIS is why Safe Haven boxes are SOO SOO important. The closest Safe Haven box is aprx 6 hrs away from here. I DO NOT think the man who left this child there should have. HOWEVER, it seems he thought that the baby would be seen since it is a walking trail. Yes, you CAN leave a baby at a hospital , fire dept . EMS station but people do not want to see anyone. If this was a child from incest or rape ..... they may not wanted to have answered questions. I am glad they located the baby.

That’s pure evil what happened to this baby and inhumane.
@@esau5530this was a guy?
Angels on earth though
I hope the mum is okay. It makes it a little more worrying that is was a man who abandoned the baby. Of course there are a million different things that could be going on, but it immediately makes me wonder if maybe it's a domestic situation where she's being controlled and isn't allowed to leave.
exactly what I thought, maybe they didnt give her a choice and took her child :(
Maybe. I think her backyard backs the trail, and she watched this family and this woman for a long time. I thought perhaps she wanted her to raise the baby, so the bf abandoned it where she was found.
It was just as easy to drop her off at a hospital. And if he wanted to kill her, plenty of other options than having her bake in the sun. That's why I think this family was chosen.
Maybe the mother wanted to harm it, he saved it. Left it alive and well in a path to be found
@@ivang9885What an imagination you have there🙄🙍
@@annahgibbus8 what a bias you have there
Thanks for what you did God bless you!
That’s what fire stations are for.
Fire stations who try to force huge questionnaires. And, some cities try to track parents to press criminal charges. Anyway, the kid left the baby and a good area and I bet you that the kid hid nearby to make sure the baby was found safe.
Yes but some people like underage teens won’t know that unless educated beforehand, given the resources or researching themselves. Sometimes these young girls hide the pregnancy from their family and end up giving birth alone in their bathroom, outside or random public places. I’ve seen other similar news stories like this over the years. Sometimes the father isn’t even aware of the pregnancy.
@@TessE777 nope actually those safe place baby drop off places are usually totally anonymous.
@@TessE777
Exactly what fire station tries to make anyone fill out a questionnaire? If they do their going against the Safe Haven Law which is NO questions asked...period.
@@megsley
Thank you. Places that are Safe Havens aren't allowed to ask any questions.
Oh my God, you are an Angel. Thank you for being there at the right time, for doing what a good human would do!!!! Your family is Amazing ❤
As this baby was abandoned by a man with placenta still attached, I wonder where her mother is and is she alright. Did this man take the baby from an unwilling mother who was too weak to stop him? Why aren’t people showing concern for the mother as well as the baby? It could be that she seriously needs help too. 😢
Umbilical cord was still attached, not the placenta. And they probably only meant the stump, not the whole cord.
So very sad! God bless this child with a good safe life full of love and care.. 🙏
Pure evil. To drop a defenseless infant on the ground, to suffer; then die is premeditated evil. So thankful this family was there to save this child. I do wonder about the birth mother. Is she another victim, or complicit?
Horrfic. As a new dad, I can't imagine our baby boy being hungry or too hot/cold, much less terrified in pain and alone. 😢 Poor baby, hope he has a great life. ❤ I'm happy to set up a gofundme for the little guy.
They should teach this in schools or have an awareness campaign that there are safe haven laws that make it very easy to get a child to safety. So sad. But very glad the family went on a walk in the morning.
I’m so happy and grateful this family took that walk today. I can see how upset the woman is, saying she can’t get the picture of finding the baby out of her head. This could have been so much worse and I’m thankful for the family being in the right place at the right time ❤
Please tell the young people that you know that you can safely surrender a newborn baby without any repercussions or criminal charges. You don't have to give your name or have them contact your family. Do it safely and avoid prison. Hospitals fire stations and police stations will all accept unwanted newborns😢
Thank heaven the baby was found alive 🙏🙏🙏
I would’ve adopted the baby after I reported the child. That poor baby did not deserve to be thrown out there like a dog. I’m grateful that someone found that innocent baby.
Dogs don't deserve that either
The baby still has a mother being held captive. Nope, you can't have her.
@Azizamjess if someone asked me to do this, I would drive 20 miles to st Luke's hospital & give to staff.
And before anyone asks its illegal to do this for dogs too
@@bucktooth002 Or maybe the mother was killed by the guy that left the baby.
Bless you, for coming along...
At least the baby wasn’t thrown in the trash or murdered. Thank goodness for these people.
Thank you God for saving this baby!❤
When they find the parents they should be charged with attempted murder. I don't care your circumstances, there are a lot of other options like the woman mentioned. Zero excuse for this.
Divine appointment.
SOMEONE KNOWS the gal who birthed this baby...some neighbor will notice that the pregnant gal next door is now suddenly a lot slimmer and theres NO BABY with her??? huh? that will raise suspicions and someones BOUND to report that...
They said a man did this
Someone may not have known they were even pregnant. It happens.
Our society is going to have to do better!!! Men, women AND teens are going to have to start facing REALITY and care for the babies bring created. We all have to help in this world. We can do better.
It could be a teenage girl who hid her pregnancy and gave birth at home. Possibly a brother or boyfriend who was too young to drive who abandoned the baby where someone would be sure to find it but you are correct, this was extreme dangerous for the baby's well-being to be left in the sun or where an animal or something else might have hurt or the baby or worse
Whatever person left the baby on a well traveled path , knew they could not care for the baby and did them a favor .The parent were obviously not mentaly stable enough to care for it
@@mariantreber8055 Abortion needs to be legal, and safe. That would eliminate things like this from happening!
I can't imagine leaving a child to die like that. THIS is why we need baby boxes.
It’s crazy that this still happens. They should teach kids that it ok to leave their babies at a fire station or hospital without getting in trouble.
They said a man dumped the baby not a teen.
Don't all teens know how to use the Internet for any possible questions they may have?
Exactly. But being it was a young man I'm really hoping it was the father or a friend who was actually helping a woman/girl & not because she was being trafficked.
I hope they can quietly find who did this & find out if she's ok or needs to be rescued. I'm really worried for her. But at least the baby is ok now.
They may be unexpected recent arrivals.
I'm so glad this family found this infant ,God puts Us in places for A reason, So sad that someone could to this to A helpless little baby.
I imagine without access to women's health care we will see a lot of this in the future
Do you mean kill the baby in the womb, healthcare? You are at your lowest right now. Don't forget YOU were allowed to live too.👎
@@IllObserveAndReport
I'd be Proud to Have that precious little gift.
... but not hearing you doing the first thing to make her life better.
...had it been up to you
that little girl would only be another number in a box
YES!!!!!
@@TheAlabamaWildman I'll bet you WOULD,..! A GROWN man wanting to have a strangers DAUGHTER ? I dont THINK so !
Women who are actively using do not seek healthcare during pregnancy.
Poor baby! Hopefully you can adopt her. Bless you.
“umbilical cord still attached” … baby was probably birthed outside a medical facility. The mother may have passed or is need of medical care ASAP.
Yes-this is a sad and worrisome time for the birthing mother and this infant. May all graces come together to help and heal them both.
obviously , but right , is the mother ok , or perhaps they both were so drugged up they didnt care, a lest they did the best fot the baby, even though they did so abruptly. Could have even been a child who placed it there
@@mayj257 if they were drugged the baby would still be next to them.
Thank God for the woman and her husband 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Omg...a guy dropped the baby girl off there! Where is the mother? I hope, she is ok?.. ln regards to the baby girl.. Until this matter gets straingten out? She'll need love & care after being checked at the hospital..!!?? I can temporary take care of her..IF its necessary...? Im willing to. Im in the state of Virginia. Im a single mother..of an adult son..
l work in the medical career. She will have all and in need care as possible, but most important, this baby girl will have a.. HOME!!!!...😔...thank you. Sincerely.
CPS will place her with a family. If they don't find the mother or father & the baby is put up for adoption you would have to apply just like everyone else. Less of a chance though, since you are not in this state.
Well at least they left it on a walking trail expecting someone to find it, wrapped in a blanket protected from the sun. That is much better than a garbage can and shows at least some type of humanity going on. Clearly desperation of some sort. Economic times are worsening, we will see more of this.
Our society needs to not encourage this. All babies want their real mothers & fathers. People are going to need to face reality and everyone needs to help a bit.
Happy Father's Day to the real men.
So right ! I wrote the same thing... at least the parents, as mentally unstable as they were , knew that they could not care for the baby and left it on a well walked path !
Looking forward to studies addressing increase as it relates to regressive laws that force breeding.
No, it isn't! Women and girls are now being forced to give birth to children they don't want, so expect more of this to happen because of that! The Economy is good, and getting better every day and has NOTHING to do with this! Vote BLUE everyone!!
@@melissabruhn1429 So true and well said!
God bless this sweet couple and innocent baby. I pray she is adopted by parents who will truly love her.
Whoever did this should be charged with attempted murder. There are safe havens. There is no excuse for this.
THIS is why Safe Haven boxes are SOO SOO important. The closest Safe Haven box is aprx 6 hrs away from here. I DO NOT think the man who left this child there should have. HOWEVER, it seems he thought that the baby would be seen since it is a walking trail. Yes, you CAN leave a baby at a hospital , fire dept . EMS station but people do not want to see anyone. If this was a child from incest or rape ..... they may not wanted to have answered questions. I am glad they located the baby.
Thats attempted murder right there!
...or a scared teen who panicked...
It would be attempted murder or a miserable life if he had kept the baby, at least the man had sense to know that he could not care for the baby.
could have been an R and with the abortion law the lady may have been forced to carry the fetus ... may be not her fault
@@lindadelorme5117doesn’t change the fact that it is attempted murder
Matthew 5:21 According to the Bible, your cold & evil heart could be considered murderous.
Good thing they found the poor baby before the baby died from heat stroke or an animal attack. I hope the baby gets a loving adoptive family.
Just a theory. The man that abandoned the baby is a pimp & is holding the baby's mother captive.
Thank God you went on that walk!
You can leave a baby anywhere really with no consequences! Restaurant stores any business
No only hospitals and fire stations!!
No! Only hospitals - fire stations & police stations.
Divine intervention guided this family.
Police just need the hospital to test the baby's DNA. ANYONE can find birth parents using the kit "21 and Me".
23andMe meets Forever 21
Maybe if the parents or close relatives have done 21 and Me, but most people haven’t.
Only if the parents are in the 23 & me
They don’t need parents..cousins could have taken it..a genealogist can narrow down option..Ancestry is better than 23 and Me..
@@robinsonfamily222i came
Your a Angel
Abortion is illegal?
This happened in Texas . Abortion is illegal there.
so is stomping on a baby outside. so they can't do that to get rid of it... 🤔
Blessings to this family and poor innocent angel !
Someone should look for the mother, this guy may have taken her baby from her after birth without her knowledge…
The child was left alive to be found. Maybe the mother wanted to harm it and he saved it
that was GOD ORDAINED that moment and protected that baby...🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙏🙏🙏🙏
Why are they shocked this will be the new normal
Anti-choicers say they hate dumpster babies, but they’ve created a lot more dumpster babies with these restrictive laws…
@@damdamfinoAre you kidding?? Of all the comments here yours is the worst.
thank you God for this couple found the baby
Geez, just take it to a fire station or a hospital 🤦♀️
Thank God this Family found the Baby!! 💞
Sounds like someone's locked up and gave birth
Thank God this family was there.
Abandoning a baby is attempted murder. He should be convicted of such if he is found.
