“My husband already renamed him Stormy Vinz”: Mandy (33) gives birth at home when Eunice reaches its peak

Being born in the bathroom during one of the worst storms our country has ever known. That is the unlikely birth story of Vinz Verstraeten from Heist-op-den-Berg. The second son of Mandy – yes – Storms and Kris Verstraeten (35) is born just as storm Eunice rages through our region. And because the new parents cannot reach the emergency services, they receive a special escort from the Heist police zone to the hospital.
