They had three daughters named Ali Rose who was eight years of age, Naomi was five and Layne Louise was of two years.

It was hard to keep the baby on life support for such a long time so, Accuso along with a team of fifteen qualified doctors made coerce decision of taking the baby off from life support system that it would be hard for Matthew to live without these artificial life-saving devices.
Whenever life support was removed, it was observed by doctors that Matthew could not cope with the circumstances.
Accurso explained it as the hardest days of his life as he could place Matthew on life support for the rest of his life or by giving the command to god to do whatever he wants. His son was a miracle to him as he survived with most unconditional circumstances and tried to save his mother as well.
Accurso sought mercy from God as he lost both his wife and son. He believes that his son and wife both are together in heaven.
