I would like to welcome our new members and wish you well in your
journey with us.
My story is in the Files section, but briefly.....
My son, Tyson, an identical twin to my surviving son Reilly, was
diagnosed with anencephaly early in 2002 at our first u/s at 12 weeks
gestation.
All of my children are the result of IVF treatment after being
diagnosed with PCOS in early 1999.
Tyson and Reilly were born via c-section at 32 weeks due to twin to
twin transfusion syndrome. Tyson lived for approx. 10 minutes, but
did not spend any of his short time outside of the womb in the arms
of his loving parents. He is forever remembered as a mirror image of
his gorgeous brother Reilly, who is now 5.
I was also lucky enough to be blessed with fraternal boy/girl twins,
Jed & Dael in 2005, after a battle with breast cancer which cost me
my left breast and 6 sickly months of chemo. August this year will
mark my 5 year 'official' remission (fingers crossed!).
I hope that you all find the time to share your story with us, and
know that you are amongst friends who share your pain and anger at
the loss of our precious babies.
Thinking of you.
Leigh
