“The day I buried my daughter, something I wouldn’t wish on my worst enemy. The weight of it it hasn’t really sank in yet, and I don’t know if it ever will,” Cainwrote on InstagramTuesday, sharing photos from the day. “But I do know that I promised to do her proud, channelling her incredible energy every day for the rest of my life.”
“So, despite Friday being the most devastating day any parent could go through, it was also beautiful,” he added. “We remembered and reflected on how amazing Azaylia was; the love that she created and the pure, positive energy that she possessed throughout.”

“I would do ANYTHING to bring my little angel back,” continued Cain. “She meant more to me than life itself and the fact I cannot change what has happened breaks me to pieces. It is something I will carry until the day I hold her again in paradise.”
The dad added, “But, for now, I feel proud that we could give her the send off she deserved, a tribute to her short but impactful life… A beautiful life full of colour, strength, song and determination to enjoy every moment, even when dealt the toughest of hands.”
