Five young children, including a newborn, were orphaned after a California couple died of Covid 19 weeks apart.

With their four children, Daniel and Davy Macias Following both parents' hospitalization for Covid-19, a fifth child, a female, was born.

They cleaned down surfaces, washed after work, and even had their groceries delivered, but the virus still infected them.

Davy Macias, a labor and delivery nurse from Southern California, was seven months pregnant with her fifth child when she was admitted to the hospital with Covid-19 in early August. Daniel Macias was infected with the virus as well.

Doctors assisted Davy Macias, 37, in delivering the baby via Cesarean section while she was intubated, but she died before she could meet her child.

When Daniel Macias, 38, learnt of his daughter's birth, he was being treated at the same hospital. Nurses handed him pictures of the infant before he died of the viral complications less than two weeks later, leaving the newborn girl without parents or a name.

Terry Macias, the grandmother who is currently caring for the five children, told the hospital when they asked for the baby's name: "I'll wait for my son to name her."

Her name has yet to be revealed. For the time being, the family refers to her as Baby Girl, as did the hospital.

The little children's grandmother explains death to them.

According to Macias, the couple was unvaccinated and died on August 26 and September 9, leaving behind children ranging in age from 3 weeks to 8 years old.

She explained, "It wasn't that they didn't want to be vaccinated; they had planned on it." She was adamant that this was a personal decision, and each of them wanted to learn more about the vaccine's safety before getting it.

Terry Macias, a retired kindergarten teacher, believes her son and daughter-in-law became infected with the coronavirus following a recent family vacation to an indoor water park as a last hurrah before returning to school.

Macias was in charge of informing her grandkids after learning of their deaths. Macias said the 8-year-old boy and 5-year-old girl recognized their parents were gone, but she's not sure they realize they'll never see them again.

The couple's 3-year-old daughter told Macias she had a dream her father was coming home from the hospital when she awoke Thursday, but she later found that her father had died.

When she got the news, the toddler burst into sobs, reminding her grandmother of her dream.

"I know, sweetie," Macias responded, "but our dreams don't always come true."

Before the epidemic, a couple sold their home.

Davy and Daniel Macias sold their home shortly before the epidemic struck, and the family was forced to live with Daniel Macias' parents.

Terry Macias praised her daughter-in-law as "creative and artistic." She enjoyed keeping the kids active with crafts and games, and she frequently invited the kids from the neighborhood to join them outside.

Her son, a middle school math teacher, was "the perfect one," she said. As seen by the outpouring of support, particularly from his school community, Macias said he always had a smile on his face and was liked by everyone.

"I always felt he was the perfect boy in my heart. Seeing that others are feeling the same way is reassuring "she stated "They adored their children above all else."

The Macias family is still reeling over the loss of Davy and Daniel.

Terry Macias cried as he remarked, "We didn't see it coming." "Covid is a non-discriminatory company. It's a matter of chance, and it might happen to anyone."
