Mom Installs Baby Monitor in Son’s Room and Gets Scared When She Sees Movement There
A Mother, a Baby, and an Unexpected Companion
Seven months pregnant, Alicia Silvers received a devastating call—her husband, John, had died in a car accident. The shock triggered early labor, and with the help of a neighbor, she gave birth to a premature son, Edduin, who spent time in the NICU before coming home.
Determined to carry on, Alicia took over John’s business, managing it from home while caring for Edduin. Life slowly settled into a routine, but strange things began to happen: Edduin cried at night and appeared increasingly tired, despite no signs of illness. The doctor called it a phase, but Alicia remained concerned.
One day, she heard odd sounds—laughter and movement—from the nursery, though no one was there. Suspecting something, she installed a baby monitor. Watching the live feed, she was stunned to see Edduin smile at something moving near his crib. Rushing in, Alicia discovered a small, scruffy dog hiding behind the crib.
It wasn’t a ghost or intruder—just a stray dog who had wandered in through an old dog door, once used by their late pet, Doblo. Touched by the dog’s gentle nature, Alicia adopted him and named him Casper. The bond between Casper and Edduin grew strong, bringing laughter, better sleep, and healing to their home.
