Late last night, five-week-old Susan Anne Catherine Torres passed away from heart failure at Children's National Medical Center in Washington, D.C., following emergency surgery to repair a perforated intestine. The surgery was attempted after a sudden deterioriation in her condition over the weekend.
After the efforts of this summer to bring her into the world, this is obviously a devastating loss for the Torres and Rollin families. We wish to thank all of you who have sustained us in prayer over the past 17 weeks. It was our fondest wish that we could have been able to share Susan's homecoming with all of you.
The family will be making no further statements at this time. All media inquiries can be directed to Children's National Medical Center.
