Multiple Births

UPDATE: Amanda and Thomas Stansel Welcome Their Sextuplets

More news to report on the Stansel Sextuplets this evening. Earlier today a Houston newspaper reported the six were “very critical but stable at this time.”

The babies arrived yesterday weighing between 12.3 ounces and 1 pound, 2 ounces at 23 weeks gestation.

Just 20 minutes ago, Tomas Stansel twittered that one of the boys Dallin Cory Stansel had lost his fight. One of the girls Ashlyn was in having surgery and Kaitlyn was most likely to be next.

My heart breaks for this family. 23 weeks is too early. We will be praying for the remaining 5. Sometimes amazing things do happen…
