On Monday, a cry of a newborn child brought great joy to a couple in Georgia who have mourned 13 months ago over the death of their conjoined twins. An adorable little boy by the name of Seth Michael Humby's was born in the family
In December 2014, news trended on Facebook about the birth of conjoined twins. The twin was born with dicephalic parapagus, a condition wherein parts of the bodies of twins are joined together. In the case of Asa and Eli Humby, they had their torso, arms and legs joined together, according to the Statesman.
Being warned by the doctors that their children had very little chance of survival, Michael and Robin Humby did not give up on their two little boys. Believing that the cries coming from the twins were signs that they will make it, the couple did not lose hope.
However, a few hours after their birth, the twins' health grew worse since sharing the same heart was not enough for them to survive. After being removed from ventilators the two boys died, less than two days after their birth.
In spite of the mourning brought about by the death of their boys, the couple continued to pray and had faith that their daughter Selah will have a brother or a sister to grow up with. And on January 18, she welcomed a six pounds, six ounces and 19.5 inches long baby brother.
"The Lord blessed us with Asa and Eli last year, and we miss them dearly. God is good and he decided to bless us again with Seth", Michael Humby.
God has given the family a very special gift, to bring great joy big enough to heal the wounds that the past had given them.
"I love the Lord even more than ever. I'm not mad at Him. I'm not hurt or anything of that nature when it comes to my boys because I know they are in Heaven and they are waiting on me", the father concluded, according to Parenting.
