Trent Williams Announces Passing Of New Born Son
On Sunday, Nov. 24th, their newborn son Trenton Trenton O’Brien Williams Jr. died. Both Trent and his wife have now announced the devastating news. It is truly devasting to read their messages:
“💔It’s been extremely hard trying to process the saddest Hello and Goodbye that I’ve ever had to endure. Last Sunday night on 11/24/24; I welcomed your lifeless 4lb 8oz 18.5 in long little body at 11:38pm. At only 35 weeks, your impactful and quick arrival didn’t even give mommy time to get an epidural. I’m so grateful to have had your Aunt Katina(who also cut your cord) and nurse Hannah by my side. 🙏🏾,” his wife wrote.
They posted a longer message later on saying:
“🥹I can’t even begin to describe how I felt leaving the hospital without you. Nor how it feels being home celebrating Thanksgiving without my baby in my arms. My heart is broken and my arms are empty.💔 But I know you’ll always be near watching over me and your sisters. 💞👼🏽 And for that, my heart smiles with gratitude. 💙👼🏽,” she wrote.
“Thank God for allowing us to bond for 35 weeks and for me to birth you so I could hold you in my arms. I’m at peace knowing you will never have to suffer. Although I will never hear your soft coos and cries or see those beautiful little eyes staring up at me, I am grateful to God for the time I shared with you. 💗💙Madison loved listening to your heartbeat and watching your waves of movement in my tummy. Trenton O’Brien Williams Jr., my sweet baby boy, we love you our Forever Angel!💙👼🏽”
It is in these times where football seems like nothing in the face of real life, and the things players go through in their human lives.
From all of us at Gridiron, we send our thoughts and prayers to Trent and his whole family in light of this terrible news. May Trenton rest in peace.
