An Arkansas woman, who lost her baby last month after coming down with the H1N1 flu virus, has now lost her life.

Leslie Creekmore, 29, had been hospitalized for the last month. She was put on a ventilator January 13, before being rushed to a St. Louis hospital a day later.

Creekmore spontaneously miscarried on January 16. She was 20 weeks pregnant.

“She’s gone now, and the universe itself is lesser for the loss,” her husband Chris Creekmore said in a post to the Facebook group “Love for Leslie.” “I loved her with every iota of my being and beyond, and I have no intention of that changing just because she isn’t here with me corporeally.”
