Must-see video: father documents newborn son’s short life 2016-09-30T15:54:30-04:00

The background:

When a couple learned their infant son would die soon after he was born, they decided to document his short life in a very special way.

Twenty weeks into her pregnancy, Robbyn Blick learned that her unborn son had a fatal genetic abnormality known as Edwards syndrome. Many babies with the syndrome die before birth or very soon after, often within the first month. Robbyn and her husband, Josh, said they never doubted that their son would be born. Zion was born Jan. 11, weighing 4 pounds, 7 ounces.

Zion died 10 days later.

“You did more in your 10 days on Earth than I could ever hope to,” Josh, a pastor, said in the video.
