A mother in Michigan has tragically died after selflessly shielding her 5-year-old twins during a car crash, according to her family.
Hillarie Galazka, 29, was driving home with her twin sons on Monday when her Saturn Ion was rear-ended on the entrance ramp of the I-96 near Davison, WJBK reported.

Our entire Zoo family is mourning this painful loss.
Dr. Dominique Keller, the zoo s chief veterinarian and director of animal health and wellness, told KTLA that Hasina was a healthy giraffe in her prime, but the length of time she was under anesthesia and the position of the breech calf complicated the procedure.
