THE WILKINSON QUINTS

 

THE WILKINSON QUINTUPLETS

On 31 July 2007, Rachelle and Jason Wilkinson of Austin Texas gave birth to Quintuplets in Phoenix Arizona. The total birth weight was 21 pounds and 7.2 ounces, a world record!

The Wilkinsons already have two other children, ages 7 and 4.

The Wilkinsons are reluctant to ask for help, but they obviously need it:

This family is of modest means and both were working. Now only Jason will work as a multimedia production manager for a small firm.

This family has a web page or blog at www.wilkinsonquints.org

From Jason's blog:

"We received another generous donation that came in part due to my uncle Ken's brother Gunnar. Gunnar is a retired Army colonel and West Point graduate who also happens to be the Grand Chaplain for the Grand Lodge of Ancient Free and Accepted Masons in New Mexico. When my uncle Ken mentioned us to him, Gunnar asked if he could help. After some discussion, the Dona Ana Daylight Lodge #78, Ancient and Accepted Free Masons voted to give a very generous donation to us.

It is really wonderful and humbling to be the recipient of so much generosity. There are groups of people that have never even met us that are doing all kinds of stuff to help us out and it is absolutely amazing to see. I am amazed and grateful for all of it and feel, more than ever, that we are going to be able to do this. "
