Well, we did it. Thirty people, nearly all of them wombtwin survivors, gathered together in a room and shared stories. Magic. An amazing sense of kinship. I enjoyed it a lot. Exhausted but very happy today, and grateful for all the help and support.
I have put some comments here that were made at the end of the day.
I put this post here so anyone who was there can say how it was for them, and what comes next. If you weren't there, tell me what you would have liked to see. Thanks.

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.
The conference was like a party with long lost friends, where we shared our stories ans feelings. I loved the speakers and the information they shared.
ReplyDeleteIt was a very important moment for me, a turning point, from now on everything seems quiet, my wombtwin is in peace, she has found her place in this world, so I'm in peace too.
Thank you all.
