What you need to know:

  • Two of her babies, both boys, died last week while under special care at the same hospital.

  • The three remaining girls are doing well and under special care.

  • Moi Teaching and Referral Hospital boss says she complained of chest pains and persistent headache on Saturday night.

Everline Namukhula was an optimistic mother, joyous and looking forward to raising her fragile five babies when she gave birth, preterm, 26 days ago, at Kakamega County Referral Hospital.
