Alexa PenaVega and Carlos PenaVega announced the loss of their daughter in April.
"We have obviously felt a lot of pain, a lot of pain. But also, an insane amount of peace. Like, God has really met us in this place between pain and peace," Alexa said. "It really doesn't make any sense other than it is his supernatural peace, that is just covering us and allowing us to still go through grief and to still, you know, walk through this valley, but not alone. And not without purpose. This season, I have learned so much about pain with purpose."
The Love in the Limelight star expressed how deeply the tragedy affected her mental and physical well-being. "Losing Indy was very hard. And then, right after losing her, my health declined a lot. And nobody could figure out what was wrong. And it was a very hard season for all of us to navigate," she added.

"But I don't think I've ever surrendered in this way to God in my life. Like you think, ‘God, I’m going to surrender. I'm going to surrender. I'm going to surrender.' But until you get to this point, you don't even realize the type of surrender that you're capable of," she explained.
"I just remember completely surrendering and having the pain in my heart from loss, the pain in my body from…trying to figure out what's going on with me, I just kept praying, ‘God, give this pain purpose. Any time my body is feeling pain, God, may you turn it into purpose,'" Alexa preached.
