When Amie was 11 weeks into her pregnancy the couple were told Bella's twin Willow had anencephaly, a condition whereby she would be born without parts of her brain and skull.
After the girls were born, the family-of-four spent the time they had together soaking up every second.
But after five hours, Willow tragically passed away.
