Miracle Baby Left to Die in Rat-Infested Garbage Dump Shares Incredible Story
Jackie Darby is a wife, mother, and author with a robust life and passion for the Lord. But she was once an abandoned baby left alone to die in a garbage dump in Seoul, South Korea. “Rats were eating on my … little body,” Darby, who has a new book titled “Whose Am I? The Truth About Your Worth and Identity in Christ,” told CBN News. “But the Lord God sent a missionary nurse who found me, and rescued me, and took me to a local orphanage that was also run by missionaries.”
That miracle rescue led her to be adopted by missionaries in America who already had five biological children of their own, but felt called by God to bring her into their home. “After they read an article about post-war babies in the local newspaper, that’s how the Lord touched their hearts for adoption,” she said. Over the years, Darby said it was often perplexing and difficult to recall how she was discarded.
“It was very overwhelming thinking that that’s how my life began,” she said. “And I often wondered why — why was I thrown in the garbage?” Darby recently teamed up with fellow author Aixa de López to pen “Whose Am I?,” a book that grapples with the issue and “shares true life experiences about adoption, redemption, and finding our true identity in Christ, while providing opportunities to ask questions and engage in conversations that are often difficult for families to address.”
De López told CBN News she and Darby first connected years ago at a local church. When de López was eventually called by God to foster care and adoption, she began relying on Darby to help her navigate the situation. “[Darby] and her daughter would come over, take [my] kids to McDonald’s, and then do some crafts at her place,” de López said. “And then my kids started to relax around her, and especially my younger little who’s pictured in the book started to have these deeper conversations with Jackie.” Watch the incredible story.
