0:26
was extremely happy when she found out
0:28
that she was with child
0:29
she was going to be a single parent and
0:32
the best mom ever
0:33
but Valeria had no idea how her world
0:36
would change soon enough
0:38
in her excitement she had spent a lot of
0:40
effort and money preparing a nursery for
0:42
her baby
0:43
she couldn't wait for her life to change
0:45
but she had no idea that nothing was as
0:47
it seemed a year after her pregnancy
0:50
Valerie needed money and so she decided
0:53
to clear out some of her clutter at the
0:54
same time
0:55
she had a yard sale and among the things
0:58
she looked to sell she noticed her crib
1:00
in the corner of the room
1:02
she knew it was time to sell it she
1:04
posted an advert online and waited but
1:07
she had no idea that there was a detail
1:09
about the crib that was truly horrifying
1:11
in the same town there was a carpenter
1:13
by a trade named Gerald compula and his
1:16
wife named Laureen they noticed the ad
1:19
for the crib and knew their
1:20
granddaughter would need one for a
1:22
pregnancy it looked perfect it was at
1:25
the right price and was in good and
1:27
sturdy condition they thought it was a
1:29
bargain but they didn't know what they
1:31
were actually paying for
1:32
the elderly couple decided it was
1:34
perfect and called Valerie to arrange a
1:37
pickup they didn't want to wait and
1:39
wanted to pick it up as soon as possible
1:41
when Gerald got there he saw Valerie
1:44
coming to greet him she was dragging the
1:46
crib along with her and it looked in
1:48
great order he wondered why she was
1:50
selling it Gerald walked up to her to
1:52
give her a hand moving the crib
1:55
asking her how she was and that she was
1:57
having a good day but her replies were
2:00
blunt she replied with short one-word
2:02
answers he asked her one more time what
2:05
her child's name was maybe she didn't
2:07
hear the first time it's not like the
2:10
question was a delicate one she
2:12
hesitated and then quickly said no
2:14
Gerald didn't really believe her it was
2:17
the way she looked down at the ground
2:18
when she said it something wasn't right
2:20
about her nonetheless Gerald persisted
2:23
to sound her out he smiled politely at
2:25
her but Valerie didn't smile back
2:28
she then asked him for the cash and then
2:30
told him to leave
2:31
Gerald was taken off guard by her
2:33
attitude he confronted her and asked her
2:36
if she had a problem with him
2:38
Valerie replied just take the crib pay
2:41
and leave please Gerald had never been
2:44
talked to like this before he felt like
2:46
he was being pushed out the door and he
2:48
didn't understand it but he still wanted
2:51
the cribs so he gave her the cash and
2:53
left
2:54
completely oblivious to what he was
2:56
taking home when Gerald got back home he
2:59
was excited to show his wife the crib
3:02
looking at it again earlier he was very
3:05
happy with it and hoka's granddaughter
3:06
would be just as ecstatic it was a great
3:09
gift but when Gerald's wife came over to
3:11
inspect the crib she cried out in a fit
3:14
of Anguish what was wrong Gerald
3:17
sprinted over to see what the matter was
3:19
Gerald couldn't see anything wrong with
3:21
the crib he put his hand on his wife's
3:23
shoulder and asked her what was wrong
3:25
she looked up at him visibly upset and
3:28
pointed at the crib Gerald followed her
3:31
finger she was pointing at the wooden
3:33
frame Gerald looked closer suddenly his
3:36
heart pounded as his jaw dropped
3:38
immediately he loaded his truck with the
3:40
crib and drove straight back to where he
3:43
bought it Gerald knew something wasn't
3:45
right with that conversation and now he
3:47
knew exactly why Gerald arrived at
3:50
Valerie's home and knocked on her door
3:53
a minute later she answered looking
3:55
confused as to what he was doing back
3:57
then she saw her crib
3:59
the same crib she had sold him just a
4:01
few hours ago I've seen what was on the
4:04
crib Gerald said straight away he could
4:07
see the shock in Valerie's eyes Gerald
4:09
caught her off guard her face went pale
4:12
she had no idea how he knew he brought
4:15
over the crib and showed her what he
4:17
found
4:18
her eyes teared as she stared at the
4:20
wooden frame I know about Noah he said
4:22
please she bait I just wanted to get rid
4:25
of that crib what were they seeing
4:28
straight away he could see the sadness
4:30
in Valerie's eyes it was at that moment
4:32
that Valerie revealed the true
4:34
Fitzgerald and he wasn't prepared for it
4:37
she explained how she had forgotten she
4:39
had put that there
4:40
she didn't want any trouble and said
4:42
she'd give it to him for free if he'd
4:44
just keep it but he wasn't having any of
4:47
it you see when she was more than
4:49
halfway through her pregnancy
4:51
Valerie started to suffer from backache
4:53
and stomach pains At first she brushed
4:56
it off as just pregnancy symptoms but as
4:58
the weeks went by she knew something was
5:00
going on Valerie went over to the
5:02
hospital for a checkup while she was
5:04
sitting in the waiting room she had
5:06
hundreds of questions flooding her mind
5:09
she took a deep breath before composing
5:11
herself everything is going to be Oaky
5:13
she said but had no idea what was coming
5:16
Valerie waited while the doctors
5:18
conducted their scans and finally the
5:21
doctors had the results
5:23
the umbilical cord doctors theorize had
5:26
become compressed in the lung making it
5:29
impossible for the necessary nutrients
5:31
and oxygen to make it to the fetus
5:33
Valerie lost her baby it was a
5:36
devastating blow for Valerie a loss that
5:38
was almost impossible to process for the
5:41
past few months her life centered around
5:43
the arrival of her unborn child
5:45
not only did Valerie have the mental and
5:48
emotional side effects of her loss to
5:49
deal with
5:51
she also had to face up to the fact that
5:53
her home's Nursery wouldn't be used
5:55
Valerie was devastated to hear the news
5:57
as the weeks passed Valerie became a
6:00
shell of herself she was hardly eating
6:02
and she hadn't left the house in weeks
6:04
Valerie could feel herself sinking
6:06
further and further it didn't help that
6:09
there were so many reminders of her baby
6:11
everywhere she looked but 11 months
6:13
after her baby passed Valerie knew she
6:16
had to make a change it was what her
6:18
baby would have wanted
6:19
Valerie missed smiling and laughing she
6:22
missed her old self so first on her list
6:24
was to have a yard sale and get rid of
6:27
any unwanted items
6:29
she came across the crib she had bought
6:31
for her baby and she felt a lump in her
6:33
throat she knew she had to sell it she
6:36
didn't need it anymore and perhaps
6:37
somebody else did when Gerald and his
6:40
wife came across the crib advertisement
6:42
online he thought of his own pregnant
6:44
granddaughter and how much joy it would
6:47
bring her a piece of its wooden frame
6:49
that changed everything as he looked
6:51
closely he saw a faint but visible
6:53
message scribbled into the bottom of the
6:55
crib with wide eyes he read what it said
6:58
our guy pinoa
7:00
2019-2020 Gerald and his wife
7:03
immediately felt like they could not buy
7:05
this
7:06
something about the scribble was so
7:08
painful it would drive anyone to tears
7:10
but Gerald reacted differently straight
7:13
away Gerald felt heartbreak and
7:15
Devastation knowing the truth about this
7:17
crib he felt guilty for buying it off
7:20
Valerie as it obviously meant a lot to
7:22
her Valerie wasn't being rude she was
7:25
just sad very sad Gerald thought it was
7:28
because of him but it had nothing to do
7:30
with it at all the guilt was unbearable
7:33
Gerald knew what he had to do to make
7:36
things better so he got to work and
7:38
completely transformed the crib into
7:40
something spectacular as parents to 15
7:43
children Gerald and Laureen knew what a
7:46
child meant to a young mother Gerald and
7:48
Laureen agree that the crib needed to
7:50
return to Valerie still Gerald knew it
7:53
couldn't go back to her in its current
7:55
form he needed to work his Craftsman's
7:57
magic Gerald brought the crib into his
8:00
Workshop the retired grandfather started
8:02
tinkering away at the little white crib
8:04
he started cutting and measuring the
8:06
wood hammering nails and mixing paint he
8:09
had a vision in mind and hoped to
8:11
transform this into something that would
8:13
last a lifetime it would now serve a
8:16
different purpose instead of reminding
8:18
Valerie of a loss he hoped it would
8:20
honor a life he worked day and night in
8:23
putting countless hours until he got it
8:25
finished and when he finished he stood
8:28
back and hoped that Valerie would be
8:30
delighted with Incredible handy work
8:32
Gerald turned the crib once relegated to
8:35
spend a lifetime in the corner of a dark
8:37
garage into a Bright Beautiful bench a
8:39
memorial for the beautiful life taken
8:41
far too soon
8:43
this Gerald figured was the perfect way
8:46
to honor the boy he never knew he
8:48
explained speaking about the idea behind
8:51
the crib Gerald said an unused crib is a
8:55
sad reminder a bench is more of a
8:57
memorial it's part of that sad happening
9:00
yet it's not a reminder like an empty
9:02
crib would be
9:03
he wanted to turn the crib into
9:05
something that Valerie could use and
9:07
keep with her Valerie offered Gerald
9:09
money money for his time money for his
9:12
work money for being so kind in a
9:15
sometimes painfully cruel world he
9:17
declined any payment it's just nice to
9:20
be able to do something for someone he
9:21
said it's people like Gerald that make
9:24
the world a better place
