1 Oktober lalu, Erin Malek selamat melahirkan bayi pertamanya yang diberi nama Mohamed Faliq bin Mohamed Farriz. Putera sulung Erin Malek dan suami, Farriz Fauzy ini dilahirkan pada jam 9.27pagi, Khamis lalu. Seperti yang dikhabarkan sebelum ini, Erin disahkan hamil bayi kembar. Namun, dalam kegembiraan menyambut kelahiran anak mereka, Erin menyampaikan berita sedih tentang salah seorang bayi kembarnya tidak dapat diselamatkan.
“Assalamualaikum… 1st October 2015, Thursday, 9.27am Alhamdulillah, it was a very memorable moment for me and Farriz. We would like to introduce and welcome our little prince, Mohamed Faliq Bin Mohamed Farriz to our beautiful family.
“Many might not know that my other baby twin to Faliq passed away at the age of 16th weeks during my pregnancy. His heart stopped beating due to excessive fluid in the tummy, causing his whole body to swollen. As the doctor adviced us that I still can carry my other baby through my 9 month pregnancy. I have mixed feeling when looking at Faliq because he remind me of his other half.
“Farriz and I were really sad about this but we believe Allah have a better plan for us and both of our babies. We would like to extend our gratitude to our family members, friends and all the people for giving thei full support and prayers…Thank you.” tulis Erin di dalam sekeping gambar yang dimuat naik melalui Instagram miliknya.
Biarpun kehilangan seorang anak kembarnya pada 16 minggu kehamilan, Erin tetap kuat menghadapinya dengan penuh tabah dan menerimanya dengan penuh redha. Salam takziah dari sidang editorial EH! dan selamat bergelar ibu buat Erin Malek.
