A long time since I posted, but a busy and productive time nonetheless. I have managed to set up a new company, limited by guarantee and designed not to make a profit. All the takings will be ploughed into further growth and development. I am project Director and I have two other Directors, so far; Nick Owen and Shirely Ward, both of them very experienced in prenatal psychology.
These are the aims:
1. To disseminate information about the sole survivors of a twin or multiple pregnancy (hereinafter called "wombtwin survivors") to the general public.
2. To carry out research into the psychological, spiritual and social effects of being a wombtwin survivor.
3. To provide various forms of help and support for wombtwin survivors and their families.
4. To develop specific therapeutic interventions for wombtwin survivors and their families.
5. To develop and deliver training programmes for therapists and other professionals in the application of the specific therapeutic interventions with wombtwin survivors, as described in 4 above.
6. To apply for grant funding to provide financial support for 1-5 above.
7. To carry out trade in various related items (books, e-books, teeshirts etc) to provide funds for company activities.
I will have members, each to pay a small annual subscription. want to join? Just send an email to members@wombtwin.com.
My dream is that I will one day have 500 members from all over the world. That dream is a long way off, but if you don't have a dream, how can you have a dream come true?
When a twin dies before birth, the sole survivor needs help and understanding. Womb twin survivors are the sole survivors of a twin or multiple pregnancy. This group, 1 in 10 of the population, includes survivors of a stillbirth, miscarriage, abortion and a "vanishing twin" pregnancy. It is a story of a twin bond broken by death, leaving a lonely survivor.
