Major hugs to you! How tragic!
I'm not a twin, but my Mom was an identical twin, and I KNOW twins are different than regular siblings. At 16 it would be hard to lose a sibling, but a twin! And then your foster brother! Then your big brother! What overwhelming losses. I am very sorry you have had to face such tragedies in your life.

Words escape me. Hugs to you and Jamie!

I'm so sorry you lost little Tommie. 32 is way too young! Condolences on your loss!

Also to Fwan for the loss of so many siblings at birth! And to KrazyKat and Lacey. So sad to lose someone you "know" inside, but never got a chance to grow up with! Condolences!

Where my cats are
I'm not a twin, but my cousin was born 28 days before me so we got treated like twins. We got the same gifts, dressed the same, etc. It was fun some times because we were the same age. She was my maid of honor in my wedding.
