Multiple Births Sextuplets

Tragedy Strikes: Second Sextuplet Passes Away in Vancouver Hospital

Heartbreaking news emerged yesterday as it was reported that another one of the sextuplets born in Vancouver earlier this month has tragically passed away. This marks the second loss for the family, following the news that one of the babies had already died.

The premature babies, born after just 25 weeks of gestation, were being closely monitored and receiving intensive care at British Columbia Women’s Hospital. The identity of the source disclosing this sad development was not revealed by CKNW Radio, who initially reported the first sextuplet’s death.

Hospital officials are respecting the family’s wishes for privacy and have chosen not to comment on the situation. The family’s name has never been disclosed to the public and remains private.

No information was provided regarding the gender of the second baby who passed away, mirroring the approach taken with the first sextuplet’s death.

During this devastating time, our thoughts and prayers are with the family. We remain hopeful that the remaining babies will remain strong, and that the incredible NICU team will continue to work miracles to keep them alive.
