HerFamily

A woman reportedly found out she is expecting triplets just days after the death of her husband.

CBS reports that Courtney Hill and her husband Brian, a retired Navy veteran, were trying for baby number two before he was killed in a truck accident in Oklahoma on February 2nd.

Courtney apparently did a pregnancy test on the morning of her husband’s wake. She then went to the hospital as she felt something was wrong but the doctor told her she was pregnant with triplets.

She told CBS: “I’m excited to have three more smiles that remind me of him… I just feel sorry Brian won’t be able to see ‘em… I guess maybe he will see ‘em.”

Courtney’s sister has since set up a GoFundMe page to help raise money for the family which includes 2-year-old Reagan.

The description reads: “On February 2, 2016 my sister’s life was turned upside down. Her husband was killed in a truck accident.

“Just a couple days after his passing, she was blessed with the news that she was pregnant! Courtney and Brian desperately wanted more children, and this was definitely a gift from above.

“Last week, Courtney was given even more spectacular and slightly scary news. She is not just carrying one child, but is in fact having TRIPLETS!

“While we feel extremely blessed, this is overwhelming at the same time. Courtney, Reagan and future baby H’s greatly appreciate all of your support. Thank you in advance from our family.”
