Frequently-asked questions

I am a womb twin survivor. I had at least one twin (identical) that died in the second trimester (and maybe another fraternal, other gender twin). I am now realizing how much that event has influenced my life. I am ready to begin to use that influence in a positive way to achieve great things. There are so many things that I am beginning to understand. I am just beginning my healing path and learning how to gain strength from the loss of my twin. I am looking forward to continuing to learn about womb twins.

I have no proof, and about half the people who contact me dont have proof, or have no one to ask. I know that I am a womb twin survivor like I know my own name. It's as profound and real as that. My story is the epilogue in " A Silent Cry: wombtwin survivors tell their stories".
