Kochi: A couple who lost two of their children to the tsunami waves at Alapad in 2004, were blessed with twins at a hosiptal here.

For Lizzy and Srijith, who lost their daughter Alishajit (8) and son Kalidasan (4), joy knew no bounds as they held their newborns.

The children were born through a caesarean section on October 30 at the Amrita Institute of Medical Sciences here and the mother and kids are doing fine, hospital sources said.

Lizzy, who had undergone sterlisation earlier, underwent re-canalisation treatment for getting pregnant again.

Eight women who had lost their children to tsunami had undergone the treatment at the hospital. Of them, one couple was blessed with a baby girl a month ago. — PTI
