On Dec. 17, Lyndsay and Matthew Brentlinger welcomed these beautiful twins, but their fairytale didn't last for a very long time.?
The birth of two babies, a boy named William and girl named Reagan, felt like a miracle to the Ohio parents until they were told that their son was too weak to survive.?
During the pregnancy, the mother was already told that?William, their son, would likely be stillborn due to heart abnormalities. And even if he survived, he wouldn't make it for long.
¡°I was so happy they were finally here and that Will was stable,¡± Lyndsay told HuffPost. ¡°But I was also scared of when I would lose him.¡±
¡°We snuggled him, loved him, read to him and in general just enjoyed him,¡± Lyndsay told HuffPost.
They then approached a photographer who helped the couple in clicking these amazing pictures and turn this ephemeral journey into an eternal one.
William survived through Christmas and got to celebrate the holiday with his family.?
