I was listening to an online radio show today about the death of a twin,
LISTEN NOW HERE
And on this programme is the idea of making memorial scrapbooks for a lost twin.
This is a simply wonderful idea.
Take a look for more here and here and memorial gardens here

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.
In my head I started right away to look for ways to make a beautiful tribute to my early lost twin Monica... it's not easy... but it's a challenge that makes me feel enthusiastic and happy. It’s a creative way of expressing my feelings towards her and, what's as important as that, to materialise them for everyone else to see and share!
