Oh well....at least the doctors gave it an attempt. I was amazed that they were able to keep the baby alive as long as they did.

Can you imagine the heartache of this poor father? Not only did he lose his young wife, he lost the only connection he had to her.. what a tragedy.

I believe they already had one young child together, but wanted to try and have this baby even with the mother's health risks.

I'm just so glad they tried. I hope that even though he's heart-broken over the loss, he's comforted that they gave it their best shot.
