Mum's heartbreak after losing her 'miracle twins'

A grieving mum is coming to terms with losing her miracle twin boys Anthony and Nicholas in a tragic pool drowning.

Sue Aurilia, from Long Island, USA, made the heartbreaking discovery on Wednesday. Despite frantic efforts to resuscitate them and calling 911, neither of the boys could be saved.

Now a close friend of the family has spoken out about how truly awful the loss is to a mother, who was never expected to have children at all.

“She has such difficulty with pregnancies so having three of them was just a super blessing, I cannot even believe this is happening to her,” Eboni Huggins told the NY Post.

“She had a bit of a tough time, some women have tough times, so all three of her children are miracle children.”

Sue had been sleeping in the house when the boys snuck outside, authorities reported. When she realised they were missing she searched for them before finding Nicholas floating in the pool.

Anthony was only found at the bottom of the pool after authorities arrived.

Sue and husband Patrick had only just moved to their new four-bedroom home, with Eboni having worked with Sue for close to 10 years.

She told the NY Post that she felt like she was going to “throw up”.

“It’s really a sad thing… I am so flabbergasted, it’s very shocking, they were just really loving. I don’t know what else to say I’m just blown away,” she said.

The children have been described as “rambunctious” and loved playing with their older brother Christian.

Rest in peace little guys.
