What will be the fate of the twins left without parents?

At the moment, the children remain in the Neonatology Department until they reach the required weight and stable health to be discharged. There are two options – either they will go to relatives, or with the consent of the family they will be admitted to a social home for children. They told BNT that no such documents have been submitted so far.

“The case is very complicated because these children were born. Their father died before they were born, but they are not married to Theodora and Hristo, and this complicates matters. When they need help, we will provide appropriate assistance to both the municipality and friends. “, said the mayor of Karnobat Georgi Dimitrov.

The twins also have an older 4-year-old sister. She is currently being cared for by Theodora and Hristo’s parents.

“She has a father, she has a mother, and he has a father and a mother who are alive. Very good people, very hardworking,” said neighbor Yordanka Mancheva.

And residents of Karnobat are starting a charity event to help the family of the two babies.

Theodora, 31, gave birth urgently in the Burgas hospital through a cesarean section. The twins are born in the 8th month – premature, but in stable condition. Late last night, however, their mother died at the hospital as a result of COVID-19. Days before, the children’s father, Hristo, could not fight the infection. Relatives of the family still can not believe what happened.
