The birth of twins is one of the most exciting things that could possibly happen to parents. Unfortunately, there are also times when things might not go as well as expected.
Recently, a 22-year-old mother of newborn twins passed away. She leaves behind her husband who is now having to raise the twins on his own after she died.
Morgan Hughes passed away nine days after giving birth to twins, Georgia and Hudson. Her 23-year-old husband, Sam, is absolutely heartbroken and is now facing life as a single father.
According to reports, Morgan started to feel ill a few days after delivery so she was taken back to the hospital. Tests showed a high white blood cell count, which could point toward leukemia. She then passed away on December 28, 2024, only nine days after giving birth.
Morgan’s brother and sister said that they would miss her. Her brother said: “She was the most loyal person that you could have ever been around. If you were in her corner, she would have done anything for you. Just caring and loving.”
Her sister added: “No matter what she stood for, what she believed in, and what she thought was right, especially, like Justin said, for family.”
The community also came out to support the family in any way they could. There were ribbons that were lining the street where Morgan grew up and meals, flowers, and financial support have been provided.
Brian Hughes went on Facebook to think everyone in behalf of Sam and the rest of their family. He wrote: “Words cannot adequately express the loss we feel with Morgan’s passing. She epitomizes grace, beauty, kindness, strength and so many other Christlike attributes. Her legacy of love and faith lives on in Sam and those precious twins, Hudson & Georgia. Without question we know we will see Morgan again and we openly express our love and gratitude for a kind and merciful God and for his son Jesus, who we love and adore. Friends, Jesus is the only way.”
