It didn’t take long for Jeannie to realize that the parents of the baby were scared, not cruel. A note inside the shoebox, written by Cherish, read: “We love you, we are just not able to raise you. We want his name to be Allen Corey and we will hope to be able to see you again. God will be watching over you.”
The nurse first saw the terrified mother the day after baby Allen was stabilized. The girl walked into the nursery, holding her head down in shame. She just wanted to see the little one before relinquishing him under the state’s Safe Haven law. But once she held him, everything changed. The two connected, and thanks to nurse Jeannie, baby Allen’s story changed dramatically.
