Mother dies before she gets to hold her quads

A woman has died hours after giving birth to quadruplets at a US hospital.

Erica Morales, 36, never got to hold her babies before she died after undergoing a Caesarian section at Banner Good Samaritan Medical Centre in Phoenix, Arizona.

“They were transporting her from the surgery to whatever room, and she was still unconscious at that point. So, no, she never got to see them,” her best friend Nicole Todman said.
