Widowed Father Of Newborn Twins

Donation protected

My name is Ryan Struthers. This GoFundMe is for my brother-in-law Roger Miskin and his newborn twin boys. Here is their story:

Roger and Cassie Miskin were married June 5 2010. For 6 years they tried to have children with no success. After a number of miscarriages they decided to try In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) in March of 2016 which was successful. Both eggs took and they spent the summer preparing for their arrival with much excitement.

The pregnancy went very well with no complications and as the day drew nearer, Cassie started having more frequent appointments. On October 31, 2016 she went in for a scheduled Ultrasound where they determined that one of the boy's growth had slowed and it was best that a C-Section was to be performed that evening.

The surgery went well and the twins were born healthy and happy that evening.

Later that night Cassie took a turn for the worse and passed away due to complications sustained during the birth in the early morning hours of November 1st. 

I am setting up this account for those who would like to contribute to funds needed to care for the twins and ensure Roger can focus on caring for the boys and not have to worry about finances in this difficult time.

If you cannot contribute financially but would still like to help, please share this story so we can reach as many people as possible.

Other donations (clothing, toys, blankets, etc...) can be sent to the following address:
