Cleveland Browns player Hakeem Adeniji is sharing an update one week after the stillbirth of his and wife Layla’s son.

“It’s been a little over a week since we lost our boy,” Adeniji, 26, wrote via Instagram on Sunday, November 10. “There’s been anger, sadness and emptiness. The fact that he is gone has set in now and nothing can change that. I’ll never get to see him grow up, and he’ll never get to read his journal I wrote for him.”

Adeniji noted that he misses his son, and will “miss him everyday for the rest of my life.” He added that he and Kayla want to remember their son for “all the happy times he gave us” and “all the hard moments he got us through.”

“As we continue with life, I don’t want anyone to treat me any different than before, or feel like they can’t say certain things around me,” he said. “I still love kids and still want to [be] happy for all my friends in their good moments.”

“I still want to be a dad more than anything else in this world, and he gave me that even though it was short lived,” Adeniji wrote. “When and if I ever get that opportunity again I’ll never take a day for granted. I love my boy and he will live through us.”
