Couple of twins was assaulted by a mother suffering from depression.

One of the children was hospitalized for 2 months; He lost sight and speech.

The five-month-old twins who were attacked by their mother in December 2016 in the city of Marataízes, Espirito Santo, are under the care of their paternal grandparents. According to the city's tutelary council, a neighbor of the children's parents noticed that one of the twins was suffering from seizures and directed her mother to look for the hospital. At the health facility in the city, a council representative realized that one of the children had several bruises on her body and called the police.

According to the family, the suspicion is that the mother suffers from postpartum depression. Police in Espírito Santo suspect that the two children were beaten, but the boy was attacked with greater constancy, leading to loss of sight of one eye and loss of speech.

The baby was hospitalized in the city of Cachoeira do Itapemirim for two months in a coma and was discharged last week when his paternal grandmothers took them to Ipatinga in Vale do Aço.

The father of the children continues in the Holy Spirit accompanying the mother of the twins, who undergoes treatment because of depression; They are forbidden to leave the state until the facts are cleared, according to police.

According to the family, the grandparents of the twins have difficulty caring for the children and depend on the help of family friends, who help in all the needs of the babies
