Almost a year after the tragic loss of their son, Crazy Kennar and his girlfriend, Natalie Asewe, continue to mourn their precious baby, who would have turned one today. Natalie, in an emotional series of posts shared on social media, has poured her heart out, reflecting on the deep pain of losing her child and the profound impact it has had on her life. The couple’s grief is a reminder of the raw and unspoken pain that many parents go through when they experience the unimaginable loss of a child.
In her heartfelt tribute, Natalie shared a photo that encapsulates the tenderness and fragility of their son’s life. In the image, their baby can be seen resting in a crib, tubes running through his tiny body, his small fingers clasped around his father’s index finger. While the baby’s face remains hidden, the picture speaks volumes of the love and connection that existed between them. She captioned the post with a simple yet deeply emotional message: “Happy Birthday my Angel,” accompanied by a red love heart and an angelic toddler emoji.
The significance of the post was underscored by the playing of Benson Boone’s track “In The Stars,” a song dedicated to lost loved ones. The song’s melancholic melody blended seamlessly with Natalie’s words, creating a poignant tribute to a life lost far too soon. The second slide of her post was a quote that poignantly captured the toll the loss has had on her. It read: “I lost the ability to dream,” reflecting how the tragedy of losing her son has affected her ability to imagine a future.
The pain of losing a child is one that stays with parents long after the event, and for Natalie, it continues to shape her every day. A year ago, she had shared the devastating news with her followers, reflecting on the sorrow of carrying and delivering a child who would never get the chance to grow. She expressed how painful it was to have dreams and expectations of life with her baby, only for those hopes to be dashed in the most heartbreaking way.
“I don’t just grieve my son; I mourn never getting the chance to hear him cry, to hear him speak, teach him to walk, and see him grow,” she wrote. “Every new day reveals something that he will miss out on. You were perfect in every way. An angel in the book of life wrote down my baby’s birth, then whispered as he closed the book, ‘Too beautiful for this earth.’ ❤️🩹🕊️.”
Her words speak to a profound sorrow that many parents who have lost children can relate to. The grief is not just about the loss itself, but about the future that will never be realized. It’s a mourning of all the milestones, moments, and memories that should have been, but never came to pass.
Crazy Kennar, too, has opened up about the loss, revealing that their son passed away just five days after being born. The little boy spent those five days in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU), where he fought for his life, but ultimately, his battle was lost. This was the couple’s first child, and the pain of losing him has been immeasurable.
The grieving process has been an ongoing journey for both Crazy Kennar and Natalie, as they continue to honor their son’s memory and find ways to heal. It’s clear from their posts that the loss is still very much a part of their lives. While they carry this heart-wrenching pain, they also carry their son’s memory—forever a part of them.
This anniversary serves as a moment to reflect on their son’s brief life and to honor the love and dreams they once held for him. For Natalie and Crazy Kennar, the journey of grief is far from over, but through their shared tributes and continued love for their son, they are finding ways to navigate the profound sorrow that comes with such a devastating loss.
