Chrissy Teigen's miscarriage 

Chrissy Teigen and John Legend lost their baby Jack due to a miscarriage in October this year. The miscarriage came as she was taken to the hospital with excessive bleeding and had to be given blood transfusions after being diagnosed with partial placenta abruption. Chrissy Teigen took to social media to share the news of her miscarriage. 

After the incident, Chrissy took to social media again recently to share how her 'heart is full' after her friend, celebrity manicurist Kimmie Kyees sent her a video of six of her friends donating blood in honour of baby Jack.

She shared the video on Instagram and captioned it, "Ok, I tried writing this 4 times but the tears were too much. Here we go again, with my heart full of warmth and happiness. My friend @kimmiekyees sent me this with the caption “Me and 6 of my friends donated blood to replace the 7 pints you were given in the hospital, in honor of baby Jack. I love you friend.”

Teigen noted in the caption that Kimmy Kyees was told by the volunteers that blood donations were down since high schoolers were mainly responsible for donating blood. "Usually, they’d get a coupon for an ice cream cone or a movie ticket, but without school in session, donations are down. I have a lot of friends who normally would donate from a special day at work, but alas, no work."

Ok, I tried writing this 4 times but the tears were too much. Here we go again, with my heart full of warmth and happiness. My friend @kimmiekyees sent me this with the caption “Me and 6 of my friends donated blood to replace the 7 pints you were given in the hospital, in honor of baby Jack. I love you friend 💛” . . Phewwwww the tears. I’m overwhelmed by our circle of friends. The love I feel for each and every person in our circle actually makes me ache. @kimmiekyees, I’ve known you for so many years now. You know every story, you hear every life gripe, you’re amazing at what you do but the way you treat my kids and family is cherished always. To do something like this for baby jack is just...I dunno. Beautiful. . . @kimmiekyees was told by the volunteers that donations were severely down because high schoolers are responsible for so much of the blood donated. Usually they’d get a coupon for an ice cream cone or a movie ticket, but without school in session, donations are down. I have a lot of friends who normally would donate from a special day at work, but alas, no work. . . Kimmie, I love you. I love this. I am so proud of the people I surround myself and my family with. 💨🍃🦋
