At the end of the day every person present was asked to make some kind of brief comment about how they responded personally to this first conference for wombtwin survivors. Here is a small selection: There were common threads running through all the stories and presentations.
There wasn't enough for mothers who have lost their twin - I expected more of that. However I do feel a weight has lifted and I have more hope that I will be able to help my son who is a wombtwin survivor.
There is a sense of excitement, that after this we will move forward.
There is more hope.
I loved hearing everyone's stories!
It meant a lot to me to stand up and announce that I am a wombtwin survivor for the very first time in public.
I feel less alone - I always thought it was just me who felt this way.
I was glad to disciver that family constellation work is helpful for wombtwin survivors.
I loved hearing about the healing ceremony - the "letting go" ritual.
This has been like a pandora's box - it's wide open now!
It feels like I have found what I have been searching for.
I liked the discussion of what heals, I didn't want "head stuff".
The personal testimonies were encouraging.
This is what I have been wanting: to get together with others like me.
This has been a space to talk and feel accepted.
I feel like I will be able to talk about this now, and not feel weird or strange.
The sharing was empowering.
There was a deep sense of kinship, like we are a family.
