Funny how things turn out in life, although you try to be the best "you" you can be, the world does enjoy throwing you the most bizarre loops, people at work stealing your ideas, people around you basically forgetting who you are, even your own sister replacing you with a brand new brother (from her father's side) after 25 years.

After the, shall we say...

It seems my beautiful twins have decided that sleep is for the weak and that screaming incessantly as soon as night falls is the future.

Still, you gotta laugh... Right?

After nearly 9 weeks of stress and worry, I am so happy to say my identical twins are home safe and sound 😁 now we have to adjust to 2 new little personalities vying for attention in the best way ever.

Although I am still trying to be active, I still have a lot of my time taken up between work and visiting my preterm twins. Fingers crossed that the first twin will sort out his oxygen dependency soon.

With no change at the hospital, I (being new at this) am stuck for something to say, but, as this is only the third day from my determination to be active, I feel I ought to write something.

So, a question to any suicidegirls or hopefuls that may happen upon this little corner of the site, which picture of yourself do you feel captures 'you'...

Well, the older twin is now back on oxygen, he just doesn't seem to want to get over this. We are getting so frustrated because he is recovering so slowly, so far he's needed an ecg, blood transfusion, infection checks, long line, trace reading, and an ultrasound scan. We are just wishing for them both to get healthy.

My wife and I have been to see my newborn identical twins today (we go everyday to do cares and feeds) and we are worried about the elder twin as his oxygen levels are still dropping low. They were born 9 weeks early and have been in hospital 5 weeks now. They are slowly improving but we are still worrying.

No Promises or anything, but hopefully I'll have more (something? Anything?) to say...
