Chancerelle Hospital, Port-au-Prince – January 28, 2009
Rachel Mathieu, 29, became a mother for the first time when she delivered twins on January 30th. “She was still eight months pregnant and started to lose blood. We came to the hospital and she had a C-section. We are all living in the street because our house collapsed in the earthquake. But now the whole family is happy that the twins arrived safely”, said Pamela, Rachel’s sister, while Rachel slept next to her twins.
