The Alu family was fortunate that the nurses who cared for their girls and Amber made the experience the best that they could, Amber said.
They do now, thanks to a donation made by the Alu family, who raised the about $3,700 through an online account started by them and merged with another account started by local photographer Shanna Chess.
Now, as the Alu family continues its own personal path through grief, the couple also wait in anticipation for the births of their twin sons, who will reach 29 weeks gestation this week.
