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.

Anorexia and the emptiness inside - if only......
This girl with anorexia is evidently struggling to live, but has spent many years trying to die. She knows that binging is her attempt to fill the screaming emptiness inside.

Then they would understand. When we see someone with anorexia there is a very good chance that the reason why he or she is trying to die and struggling to live, is because of being a womb twin survivor.
It's a life and death thing, after all.
But how to tell them? Any suggestions?
