- Earlier this year, three young children who live near St. Louis lost both of their parents just four months apart. Their community rallied around them. Then, the relatives who took them in faced their own health challenges. “CBS Mornings” lead national correspondent David Begnaud traveled to a suburb of St. Louis to meet this incredible blended family and hear their story of love, grief and moving forward.

This is what sisters do for sisters. Nieces and nephews are forever.
I love my nieces and nephew like my own children. God bless this family in Jesus’ name.
If only my Mama's brother had felt the same way when my Papa asked the to take my sis and I at 8 & 10 years old. What came after was 5 more years of abuse at the hands of the stepmother who also stole our inheritance. They had cancer.
That's the Brooklyn way for sure.
@@SpiritGirlSF I'm so sorry. I hope you and your sister are ok and have each other ❤️
Yes! My nieces and nephews were my children before I became a mom. They are and always will be my babies too
Their Aunt is their Mothers twin which probably warms those children's heart to see their Mom in her and makes it a tiny bit easier to see that upon waking every day. A wonderful reminder that their Mom lives on in her and them!
@lovelydianna5930 Hello 👋! How are you doing today? How did your Christmas holiday go?
I hope the children who lost their Mom & Dad don’t live in fear of losing their Aunt & Uncle too. They need to know what their care plan would be-because the kids know bad things can happen when you least expect it & sometimes bad things happen in groups of events instead of a single isolated event. May God Bless & keep this family.
@@ajbunches825it was pretty bad. Their dad was in a decline for a long time in the house and they witnessed their mom die in the house. They are coping well from what I can tell.
@@ajbunches825yes they know what the plan is. They're dad's little brother is buying their parents house and they go back and visit all the time. They are coping very well.
They're not identical twins and they basically just look like sisters. But luckily they were incredibly close so Greg and Megan's kids considered her twin sister Krista like a 2nd mom anyway.
This story shows why so many people struggle so much. Many don’t get a village of support when life knocks them down, unfortunately. I wish this type of love for all people.
Exactly. Wonderful comment. Merry Christmas.
Very good point. So many are isolated in many ways, left to fend for themselves.
I personally experienced this kind of community outpouring of love & support in 2011 when my husband was in a tragic accident. I asked that same question: "Is this how everyone gets treated when tragedy strikes?"
I learned that sadly the answer is no. Some people do not. I also learned it has a LOT to do with where you live & how involved the recipients have been in the community. Many ppl told me," it is very easy to give back to a family that has given so much. " So I'm guessing these parents and her sisters family were probably very special.
Exactly! I can't get housing after losing everything after a breast cancer diagnosis. I'm in Washington, DC! My kids and I stay in a hotel. I see immigrants receive housing before my kids and me. I work everyday but can't get housing due to an eviction.
It breaks my heart to hear this. I try and help every single person in need, in whatever way I can. I honestly wish I were rich, because I would use my fortune to take care of other people. Can I ask- have you called social services or local housing authorities to ask about your situation? Have you tried contacting any big church communities in your area? They often have some resources. Don't give up!! I promise things can and will get better. I know it must be so hard right now, but if you just hold on and keep doing your best and give love to your children, things will improve. I was once in a situation over a decade ago, where I was basically homeless and did not see a way to have a future. It was just darkness. But. I held on and kept doing the things that I could do, one step at a time. And it took a LONG time, but each day my circumstances improved a little. And I dealt with new obstacles all the time, but conquered each one. And now, today, while life is not "perfect"-- I do have a beautiful cozy apartment, the car of my dreams, a wonderful career as a college professor, and a loving family.
Again, I wish I had financial means to help you (and many others), but if you would like, the best I can do from here is to research and try to find some resources for you to deal with this housing situation? If that would be helpful for you just let me know and we can get in touch through email or something. I don't have all the answers, but I am quite good at navigating and locating resources for people in need. My sister works in ministry as well and non profit organizations, so she also has a wealth of knowledge on finding assistance for people.
Either way, I am wishing you and your children a beautiful and blessed Christmas 🎄 ✨ and I hope and pray that things get better for you. Even if I am not able to solve the problem, I pray that other people will contribute and connect with you to offer whatever help they can as well. Keep your head up, God loves you!
Xmas blessings!
I had my mom die not even a month after my 15th birthday. Then my grandparents died in a fire 4 months later. I had no one. Not even my moms brother and wife who were our God parents. No one took us or even had a conversation about what would happen. I lived with my grandparents so I lost everything. I don't think these 2 understand what they're doing for these kids. I am 35 and had to grow up fast. I wish I had someone like them to take us and guide us. Your family is beautiful. And please know this, what you're doing even in the hard times, these babies will love you and praise what you have done til the day they go home to see mommy and daddy
I am so heartbroken that happened to you
Hope you are doing great now and found family!
I am so sorry - *hug* - I am a grandmother - I cannot imagine my granddaughters being without family.😢
I am doing well I have 2 babies of my own and another on the way. I moved across the county alone and did everything I could to give them and myself a better life. We are small business owners and work a heck of a lot but we are doing it for our family.
Sorry to say, but your mom's brother and wife are cruel to have not stepped in!
I personally knew Greg. He was such an amazing person…….he was friends with everybody. The jocks, cool kids, band kids, nerds…….everybody! Nobody could say a bad thing about him. I can’t believe he is gone. I have great memories of playing basketball and softball with him. I hope his family and kids are able to get through this and be happy.
I hope that you’ll be able to continue to be apart of the community for their children who can share fond memories and encouragement about their parents.
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
What happened to him?
@@chanoleyva colon cancer. They said it in the video.
@@twinkletoes6290 I seen that after the comment. Very unfortunate
They’re cousins but also biological half siblings since their moms are identical sisters ❤
ya that would be pretty cool. but i wonder if its kinda weird that even though mom is gone they still kinda see her. wonder if it makes them sad abit
@@Quila1125 its bittersweet
@Pumpkin i can understand. does it make u feel better knowing u still kinda see your grandma in her now?
I never thought of that. So special!
@@Quila1125 probably more comforting.
I lost my parents 4 months apart when I was 10 years old. I totally understand every single feeling these kids are going through. It's been 21 years and though I still miss them very much, it does get easier with time.
I'm sorry you lost your parents at a young age.
I am so very sorry, Samantha. God Bless You🙏🏼
Awwe, bless you.
Hugs
That’s very sad. I’m sorry for your loss. I hope you are doing well🙏
When she said "My sister saved my life" I instantly reacted.
My mom is a twin and they share all medical info between them.
I guess when they were very young, they spoke a special way to each other. A special language. Also when they were young children they were separated due to their mother's illness. My grandmother was in hospital for several months and her girls were housed separately. My mother lost 6 teeth during that time from wiggling them so much. I imagine a nervous reaction to not having her twin sister or her mom.
I have twin granddaughters. It is such a gift.👧🏼👧🏼
My aunt saved my mom's life..... Her death was hard but never in vain 🙏❤️🙏
.
This story is sad but full of hope and inspiration. God Bless this family and the people who lend their time and hands..
This is what 2 Corinthians 1:2-7 is all about

I hope these kids get happiness
I hope they all do. ♥
I agree as someone who is adopted and now recently parentless without my adopted mom.😔😪😔 Who passed now a year ago as of this past Sunday, I know in a way how painful it must be for these children. I feel for them and so many others…❤️🩹🙏🏾😥
Look up Within Heaven's Gates by Rebecca Springer 😇
I'm here to help and add good vibes to this family too!
@@michaeld.williamsiii9026 Sending you the biggest hug. May your heart stay strong. 🤗💚
It’s precious how all the kids look like siblings. Thank God they have a safe family to be with after the loss of their parents.
I wish this family the best in life. May they never be alone and always in a home full of love.
Oh God, I pray the Sister and husband will live a long life together with the kids, they don’t need anymore heartbreak. Please God wrap your arms around the family and give them a clean bill of health and longevity 🙏🏽
1 John 5:13-15
May it be so we pray♥️🙏🏽
If you are a human being this should have brought tears to your eyes. I hope the best for this family. A community coming together in time of grief but a ray of hope and happiness for these precious children.
@R Voit I'm going to assume you meant well with that comment, but Holy Hannah, your comment is not going to age well..
@Taya Janeway nah, she's right. It's common sense. If her comment reaches one person, then great!
Merry Christmas, everyone!! 🎅 🎄
@R Voit This was my thought, too. Having buried my sister, brother & mother-in-law without life insurance, it was so hard.
It's very expensive.
I learned to *never* tell a florist that the flowers are for a funeral.
Life insurance is more for the survivors, than it is for the one who passes on. It relieves the financial stress, which compounds the grief, loss, deep sadness of losing a loved one.
Businesses that are in the funeral business & connected businesses, have no mercy. They know they have their clients over a barrel.
@R Voit TRUTH!
I started my life insurance policy for myself at age 21. At age 30, I pre-paid for a funeral plan to cover the cost of everything. No one will have to go through the financial nightmare of the cost of what to do with my remains, when I pass on. But, hey, I'm the sort of person who has all of my Christmas shopping done by the end of September. When my kiddos lived in the family home, I made dinner for the next day before going to bed. We ate healthier, less expensive, much less stressful.
If anyone doubts the wisdom of pre-planning, look up the costs of last-minute funeral & burial expenses vs pre-planned & pre-paid and how life insurance saves people from insurmountable stress.
@@rvoit "Want to make the universe laugh? Make a plan!"
Thank God for the twin sister. Her & her husband stepped up & are amazing. I pray they stay well to care for the blended family.
The babies look like twins. The other kids, the bigger kids, look alike too. God bless this family 💕💕💕💕
The babies are twins
How utterly beautiful and special. I wish them many many years of joy together.
God protect this family. May they have longevity of life. We don't know when we are gonna go and life is so fragile, but just live in every moment. Beautiful story...
❤❤❤
Amen!
God didn't protect the kids parents from getting cancer and dying. Stop being delusional God a joke.
1 John 5:13-15
So many don’t even have extended family, much less ones that would bring them in. They’re truly fortunate having both.
Her sister truly did save her life.
What a heartbreaking story😢😢 God bless this beautiful family ❤️❤️
I cant imagine. I am in my 50's and both my parents died this year. My Mother in April and my Dad in August. I pray for all those who have lost loved ones especially for those who are too young to lost their parents.
My sincerest condolences for your losses and I thank you personally for sharing.❤️🩹🙏🏾😢 I too am unfortunately in this club as an adopted person as well. Loss my biological dad at 17, and abandoned my my biological mom, now mourning my adopted mom. The mom I never had, it’s extremely heavy the grief and sadness I currently feel. It’s not easy and at times feel lonesome, if not isolating. 😥❤️🩹😪 I feel for this family and these children amongst so many others who are mourning.💔 #GriefHurts Especially around this time of year…🎄😢🎄
Must be vaccine related illnesses
You Dad died from broken heart.
Can you imagine? What a beautiful story of love… this is what life is and I’m so humbled by their journey.
My aunt and uncle died 9 months apart in '52 and '53 and my parents became their children's guardians and we grew up as brothers and sisters.
That is a blessing that your mother did. You will receive the blessing of your mothers, you childrens always will have people that will be good with them. The good of the fathers the children will receive the blessings.
I was raised by my aunt and grandparents. I never felt alone. I never felt unwanted. Yes bad stuff does happen to good people.
What a beautiful family, together in love through tragedy and Hope.
Wonderful family.
Sounds like her poor sister died of heartbreak. I frequently hear of spouses having sudden heart issues and passing shortly after their loved one. This is tragic but really shows the perseverance a family can make despite so many difficulties. I’m so glad the kids are with family and are able to articulate their feelings to the most important people they now have. Beautiful
Or a mother dying right after her kid was taken due to an accident or killing or a terminal disease... 💔 💔 💔
Takotsubo cardiomyopathy is the medical diagnosis.
The mother had an undiagnosed heart condition , long qt syndrome, which her sister now found out she also has.
You didn't listen very well
Incorrect. This mother had long QT syndrome. Look it up
I cried the whole video. It's sad that they both died but was just as important is that the sister and her husband stepped in and took these children in and it will forever be loved.
My husband I had an undiagnosed heart problem and he went to bed and didn't wake up after 25 years of being my best friend and being together and it was just so unexpected, it's been a yr and everyday it hurts.
I’m so sorry u had to go through this. Sending u hugs
I love the cousin crew.
And this is why family & friends are so important. Three children lost their parents and family was there to embrace them. Family does not have to be blood. You can build a family from bond. A group of people looking out for each other.
God, Jesus Christ, Bible, Marriage and Family 1 John 5:13-15
I loved when he said that" everything comes in pairs now" 🤍 What a truly wonderful story ... although it isn't a story as such ... it's actual fact . Those children will be so lovingly cared for ... I also love the way she referred to the new family as "the cousin bunch" as it was so immediately inclusive from day one of their new lives . Please God keep them strong and help the little dog adjust too . 🕊️
Their mom died from a broken heart…This is just heartbreaking
Absolutely. That poor family 🥺
or vaxx
Yeah. How many “ undiagnosed heart conditions” are we hearing about? We had an 18 year old healthy college student on my block die during the night of cardiac arrest. And one week prior she bragged on social media about being “ smart” about getting the Vax.
When everyone knows two or three young people who die of sudden cardiac events will they start to connect the dots?!?
That's exactly what I said, The broken heart syndrome is real! After my 16 year old was murdered (2008) The 1st time I ever had to go in an ambulance) The EMT stated that was what I was experiencing) So heartbreaking ~🙏🏾🙏🏽🙏🏿🕯️🕯️
@@jennynevins6329 Exactly. You don't go 40 years with a serious heart condition "undiagnosed." It was a combination of the jabstab and stress. The jabstab caused the damage in her heart and the stress caused the weakness. Extreme stress is so damaging it can cause autoimmune diseases which is what happened to her husband. Not to mention deaths of all kinds are up buy a styrene 40%. But hey, let's all hide our heads in the sand and pretend the jabstab has nothing to do with it
It’s so hard being a parent then having to be a parent of three more children while navigating your grief and all the kids grief. This should have never happened. Prayers to you
This is the definition of family.
@gwenmotogirl Hey 👋! How are you doing today? How did your Christmas holiday go?
Thank god for the aunt and uncle --wonderful wonderful couple to take in the children thank you God! May they continue to be well , healthy and happy. Devastating situation but they turned it around!!!!!
Life is so cruel. Praying for them all. 😢❤ what an amazing family and community.
The parents of these kids would feel so happy knowing that their kids are so very loved, cared for, and in safe hands. ❤
God I got tears in my eyes.
Me too❤
Me too. Me too.
Me too
Right😢
Me too 😭❤
This is heartwarming. I hope they all are ok.
Thank you for hoping that for them. They're dealing. They're ok.
God bless them all!👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Thank goodness her sister stepped up!
You figure a twin would, but at the same time, they have to see their Mom's face every day. That's gotta be tough.
@@michaelleary9233 I wondered that, too. Though, it might be a comfort to the younger ones. Either way, I hope they all heal and can have a happy life ❤️
Can you imagine what a burden on the sister? Not only is she already a mom of three which is such a tough task then she has to go through her own grief of losing her brother in law and then sister so unfair. She didn’t have to take on three more kids that is very difficult and no one would have blamed her
@@samanthasmith4038 Yeah I understand your point of view, people are saying that’s what she should have done but she also took on a massive burden of 3 additional children their grief on top of her own children and grief.
@@michaelleary9233 or a great comfort
Wow. Uhh, crying big tears for this family...goodness, this really got to me. I guess because I came so close to losing my daughter this time last year, spending months caring for her and her children, all just a year after losing my Mom and two years after losing my Dad. I understand that overwhelming grief. Too much all at once.
Ok I’m seriously bawling , I can physically feel her grief 😢. What an amazing woman . She lost her sister which is so huge in itself . Just trying to grieve that is a Mountain. Then taking on 3 more children, ( I would do the same and never blink an eye ) . Her Husband is a hero as well . He is dealing with his loss but also helping his Wife through grief that’s unimaginable and then stepping up and taking care of extra kids while not feeling well. I ask so many blessing’s for this Family Lord 😢❤😢❤.I lost my sister and I struggle and miss her every single day !!! Sibling love is different ❤
Thank you!
I have no idea why I thought that it would be a good idea to watch this on Christmas, but hear I am - a blubbering mess! Lol.
This family is so lovely. I’m hoping easier times are ahead of them, they’ve been through so much, in such a short period of time! I’m glad the community has stepped up to help them in every way they can! ❤️❤️
Well a lot of us do.But the lesson here is to treasure your time with family and friends. You never know what day will be your last.
Agreed
Genetically, they're just as related to their aunt as their mom. What a wonderful family.
They would have been related even if the mother and aunt were not twins.
Oh my, this one hit hard. Hugs to them! I’m so happy they have each other and the kiddos are doing well!
When dad said the kids are ok I LOST IT.
#suddenlydied Bless this family and all the people who offered them help.
So many people have SO much grief. Be kind to people. Tell your loved ones you love them. Take care of your health. Pray for this family.❤️🙏
YES!! Be kind, because we dont know what others are facing.

I pray and wish these nice and lovely couples to live long and healthy life, to take care of their big family. 🙏😢 Also, may they all have a great and wonderful Christmas.
As a full cardiac arrest survivor at age 36 in oct 2019, this really hits home, makes you appreciate life more , and how God makes miracles thats are hidden in pain.. by losing your sister she did save your life. God bless you all
My friend's husband, very fit at 70 had a cardiac arrest 21 days ago...in public. A defib was at hand. 5 people took turns with CPR. Air lifted to ICU. Coma for a week. Then HD Cardio unit. 3 days ago, up and dressed. Talking without confusion. Uses a walker short distances. Heart check tomorrow if liver function has improved. Dr says only 1% survive this kinda thing. He was never ill except for 2 days at Christmas. We are truly shocked that people your age can suffer CA. I hope you stay well.
Anybody else in tears…. my heart goes out to this family.
I loved the comment “if you see someone that needs help and you can offer, give a little”…. beautifully said…. a little adds up.
Yes. Constantly. They are doing okay now. I just saw all the kids recently
Life is fragile, tragic, unfair and if we’re lucky it’s also all the good things, blessed, happy and joyful.
So sorry for the losses 🙏 And thank you for watching over these sweet children 🙏
I need to complete my book on grief. This family is an example of how we deal with adversity during grief.
This story had me in tears. What a beautiful story of family love and kindness. God bless them for many years to come✝️🙏✝️
@patriciakeanini6803 Hello! How are you doing today? How did your Christmas holiday go?
I'm writing through tears. This family is truly amazing. A family friend died from Long QT at age 15, and it's deadly. These folks are amazing. Love conquers all.

What a beautiful inspiring story of hope and living life to the fullest.

More awareness is needed for detecting heart disease in women. It's not the same as detection in men.
This is Krista, the one in the story.
I agree 100%. My sister didn't know she had high blood pressure. She probably had it for months, maybe years and it did damage to her heart and it became electrically unstable. She also most likely had the same gene mutation I have (KCNE1, LQTS Type 5). I'm so grateful to have gotten swabbed to check for any gene mutations and getting all six kids swabbed. We know her daughter/my niece has it and know what drugs/OTC meds she needs to avoid for life. When she is older, she will most likely start on a beta blocker as well.

This problem is genetic. Many do not know there is a problem until a serious episode or suddenbdeath. Its not just females

Oh my gosh,I’m in tears 😢. Their story is sad but at the same time beautiful. They said Megan had an unknown condition but she probably died of a broken heart 💔 . May God continue to bless this family🙏🏽❤️
No she actually had a heart condition her sister got diagnosed with the same thing her sister had
While she died of her condition I'm sure the stress of grief exacerbated it. So sad.
This is Krista (the one in the story). Megan had undiagnosed heart disease from prolonged hypertension (high BP) - we didn't have the autopsy report yet when they did the story. My cardiologist is pretty certain she also had LQTS Type 5 like me, so that meant she should've avoided a lot of OTC meds that she was taking, like Benadryl. It was probably a myriad of things that made her heart stop that day. 😢

This is so heartbreaking. I can’t imagine their loss just unbelievable. Life can be so cruel. What amazing hearts her sister and husband have to take in their children. They are grieving their own loss and physical ailments. Having to deal with the unbelievable diagnosis of his cancer then passing at such a young age then his healthy wife passing suddenly how so awful!
This story is both 😥 😔 and inspiring. I am a New Zealander and as a nation of 5 million when things go really wrong we get through by pulling together as a nation and help one another in any way we can. It is an awesome experience and we are doing it again right now having just been slammed by a cyclone. With the support these people have ....they will get through. Lotsa love ya'll ( I just love that word)
Wooow watching this story gave me so many emotions and when the oldest son said that he missed the little things we as humans tend to take advantage of the little things 😔 ❤😊💙🙏🙏
Awe. This is such a sad 😢 but a wonderful story. At the same time, these children get to be able see their mommy through their aunt. My heart ❤ and prayers are with this family.
