Twins become orphans after Mother dies from C-section infection on the same day as dad's funeral

Stephanie Caceres, 27, died Wednesday from a Caesarean section infection after giving birth on July 14 to twins, Jevaughn Jr. and Lailah, the Palm Beach Post reported.

The twins' dad, Jevaughn Suckoo, was fatally shot outside their Florida home on July 11. His death was ruled a homicide and it wasn't clear if police have made any arrests in connection with his killing. 

Caceres, who was also bringing up their 2-year-old daughter, Kailanie, gave birth to twins three days after his murder. 

Tragically, she got struck with an infection after the birth and was in intensive care for almost 10 days.

On Wednesday, as her boyfriend was being buried, she died. 

“We’re just trying to figure out how to move forward from here,” Suckoo’s aunt, Joni Saunders, told the newspaper during a charity event for the family.

A GoFundMe page was set up by Lina Niemczyk, Caceres’s office manager, to help raise the children financially.

“We are all devastated, heartbroken and at a loss for words for all 3 of these children who will grow up never having gotten to truly know their parents,” the page read.

The campaign has raised more than $97,000 of its $100,000 goal as of Sunday evening.
