PHOENIX (Oct. 15, 2007) -- It took two parents, one grandma, one niece, one cousin and one nanny to bring the Masche sextuplets back to Banner Good Samaritan Medical Center for a very special reunion.

The six babies accompanied by their six adult escorts, including parents Jenny and Bryan Masche of Lake Havasu City, returned to Banner Good Samaritan, where they were delivered June 11, 2007.

 All babies, Savannah, Bailey, Elizabeth, Grant, Cole, Molli and Blake are doing great, with Grant weighing in at nearly 12 pounds.

Jenny had been in Banner Good Samaritan, internationally known for its high-risk, multiple-birth program, more than two months before the delivery to reduce complications of the high-risk delivery. She was on a 5,000- calorie diet to provide for the tremendous nutritional needs of her growing babies.

This time around, Jenny, Bryan and the adults came back to the hospital to thank the physicians, nurses, ultrasound technicians who helped make the delivery possible.

Bringing the babies to visit was an exercise in logistics. The family relies on a color system to keep track of which baby is which. Each baby has a certain color blanket, with matching pacifier and other accessories. To make the trip from Lake Havasu City, the Masches used a van that was donated by Grand Canyon University.

Banner Good Samaritan has delivered about 75 sets of quadruplets and five sets of quintuplets to date. The Masches were the hospital's second set of sextuplets. Most of the quintuplets delivered at Banner Good Samaritan -- and more than half of the quadruplets -- have come to Phoenix from another part of the country. One quadruplet mom, a physician, traveled from Russia. This is thought to be more sets of high-order multiples than has been delivered at any other hospital in the U.S., and perhaps the world.

Located in downtown Phoenix, Banner Good Samaritan Medical Center has been providing medical care to Arizona and the Southwest since 1911. Banner Good Samaritan is owned and operated by Phoenix-based Banner Health, a nonprofit organization.
