A PAINFUL LOSS

Although the desperate mother's lifesaving tactic seemed to have worked on her child at first, the doctor revealed that her brain had been deprived of oxygen for too long for her to survive. Morgan recalled the heartwrenching details of the day in an interview with "CBS."

"When I opened the door and she was floating face down in the pool. Every time I close my eyes at night to go to sleep, it replays in my head."

KEEPING THEIR HOPES UP

Although Morgan gave birth to adorable twin boys, she is still hopeful that she will have a baby girl or two in the future. In another snapshot, she shared that her late daughter sent her the identical twin brothers that her husband had always dreamt of.

Today, Morgan and Bode advocate for the prevention of children's death by drowning. They even gave their son Easton some self-rescue swimming lessons to prevent any tragedy that might occur.
