I am so very happy that this beautiful little boy was found alive, which was a miracle in itself. However, it is beyond my comprehension that a member of his family, his aunt, his mother’s sister, could do this to him and to her sister. When my sister had her son, I spent as much time with them as I could. I even took him so she could get some rest. But not once did I ever think of doing such a thing, to her or to him. I am sure that Kayden’s mother, Brianna Marshall, is happy to have her new son home with her and his dad, Bruce Powell, but I am sure it is hurting her deeply that her own sister could cause them so much grief and pain. My heart goes out to them.
