Ashley Cain has shut down trolls who targeted him after he revealed he was expecting another baby.
The dad tragically lost his eight-month-old daughter Azaylia to Leukemia in 2021. The devastating loss is something he will never forget, but Ashley said he feels blessed to be welcoming another child into the world.
As happy as he is, trolls felt the need to target the grieving dad on social media, but he quickly shut them down.
He said he has been through the biggest heartache imaginable, something you'll never fully understand unless you experience it.
Ashley urged the trolls to back off and stressed that he would love and care for his child.
In the post, Ashley revealed that he isn't with the baby's mother, but said she is a good person and believes she will be a great mother.
"I am a man who had to bury the most precious thing I have ever seen, touched & witnessed.
"I am a man that not only is dealing with grief but remained strong to help those around me deal with theirs," he wrote.
Ashley said he will continue to honour his daughter and continue her legacy.
He added, "I am a man who made promises and commitments to his daughter that he would be the best person he could be to make a positive difference in this world for other children who follow in her footsteps.
"I will be a present father to my child. I will love, care, and protect him at all costs for the rest of my life," Ashley stressed.
His followers praised the dad's moving words, as well as the strength he has to keep going, despite everything he has been through.
Many admired how he could deal with trolls in such a strong way, rather than just getting angry at them.
One fan stressed, "You don’t owe any explanation to anyone, congratulations on your baby announcement"
