Twin Boys Home By Christmas Because of Local Blood Donors
When Alex K. and his twin brother William of Middletown were born 3 months early, they each weighed less than 3 pounds. Alex suffered an abruption, which means the placenta began to separate from the wall of his mother's uterus before he was born. After birth, Alex was rushed to intensive care at Christiana Hospital and needed blood transfusions to survive.
Thanks to the selfless acts of blood donors, Alex was able to recover from his injuries and was home by Christmas Day. Both boys recently turned three-years-old.
