To my loving and supportive community,

Grief is a painful feeling that we can all relate to in one way or another, BUT the grief of losing a baby is the worst pain a mother or father could ever go through!! I know we will never fully heal from the sudden death of our 8 week old son Jaxon but in the 8 weeks that we did have with him were the happiest eight weeks of our lives. My family felt complete. All of us had absolutely fallen head over heels in love with Jaxon!! It was the happiest the three of us have ever been, and then suddenly without any warning whatsoever, he was gone!! Life can be very cruel that way…our loved ones can be here one moment and gone in the next, but my faith in God remains strong and I feel in my heart that perhaps he knew something that we didn’t and called our son home before it was impossible for me to have another child. Regretfully I made the decision to remove my tubes completely bc I never dreamed anything so tragic would happen so IVF is the ONLY option that I have to complete my broken family.

So with a heavy and hopeful heart this is my story…

My name is Krissy and it’s taken me over 3 months to write my story. I kept asking myself, “What makes me SO special to ask the community for help after the devastating loss of our innocent 8-week-old precious baby boy?” But then after A LOT of prayer and some with my pastor, it came to me…This is about vaccine awareness and a community coming together to help us desperately try again to live our dreams!!

On 4/17/25, we tragically lost our 8-week-old son due to being over vaccinated. Baby Jaxon Lynn Montgomery “Apple Jax” died at the tender age of 8 weeks old after receiving 4 vaccinations at one time. His tiny developing immune system could NOT fight 4 different vaccines given at the same time, which led to his unexpected and heart-wrenching sudden death. Mind you he was a NICU baby and had issues at birth with his lungs and was put on a ventilator to help him breathe. But he pushed through and 18 days later we finally brought him home. We were living in complete bliss!!! At his 8-week check-up, minutes before administering the vaccines, I was told he was “thriving” and in the 25th percentile for his weight. Head circumference was great and overall growth and development was right on target. He was cooing, smiling, no signs of congestion, and had overall great tone. I was told “he was perfect and very healthy and ready for all his vaccines.” Now fast forward about 30 hours, and that’s when our ENTIRE world came crashing down. I noticed at the 2 am feeding he was not very interested in his bottle which was very unusual for him. But I was simply following his doctor’s advice to let him rest. I had also given him 1 ml of infant Tylenol, so I assumed he was sleepy from the Tylenol. He drank a few ounces of his bottle, but he just seemed so tired that I decided to let him rest, so I laid him down on his back with nothing surrounding him in the safest sleeping position possible. I then got up to wash bottles, do laundry , and pack his diaper bag for the upcoming day. A few hours later I woke him up to get him dressed for the day, and it was right then that I realized I was holding a lifeless baby in my arms. I immediately started screaming, “No! No! No! This is not real life,” as tears were streaming down my face. I immediately called 911 to try and resuscitate him. The paramedics tried for over an hour as well, but it was far too late because it had been too long since the administration of the vaccines and the timeline when he took his last breath. I immediately dropped to my knees, sobbing uncontrollably, all while praying to God to please bring back our cuddly baby boy. But he is now in God’s hands.

If you can relate to our story or feel moved to help donate to our broken family we would be SO thankful!! My daughter wants a sibling more than anything in this entire world and she had that for eight weeks and absolutely adored her baby brother and to her , It’s so simple! She so innocently said, “Mommy don’t be sad, we can always just have another baby” and I said to her “honey, it’s not that simple but I promise you that I am absolutely going to try to do everything in my power so we can live out our dreams and have another baby”

I also want to let other mothers know that if you choose to vaccinate your child, you do have options. You can wait till the child is older and you can also spread them out. Baby Jaxon had four vaccines in one day as recommended by the pediatrician and 30 hours later, he was gone. I hate that IVF is my ONLY option at this point to complete my dreams and relish in the complete bliss of motherhood that I crave! Had I of known that I had options to spread the vaccines out or hold off until he was older I absolutely would’ve taken that route!! But I was completely unaware and NEVER given that information.

Thank you so much for reading my story and hearing my heart! I pray every day that God will finish what he started and bless us with another child. Our heats are completely shattered, and as I stare at an empty crib and an urn full of ashes I know that one day with the help of our community and God that crib will hold our future little miracle!

Again THANK YOU so much for taking the time to read my story and may God bless you all!!! ✝️
