 They say twins have special affinity with each other. They added ,they are one diviided into two. When Dina died, I was priveleged to meet with the late Elizbeth Kubler Ross, one of the great pioneers on Death and Dying. She informed me of the same phenomena because she, too was one of triplets. She further told me that if I wanted to know something about Dina, ask Diva, the survivor.Likewise, I have to watch and pray for the surviving twin because she experienced a very traumatic event. No wonder,Diva at the saddest time said'quote "I feel that half of me is dead."unquoth. She went into deep loneliness.

Every year as their birthday approaches, the family greets both of them. We say one is in heaven and one is on earth. This year, we encouraged Diva to write something special about her sister. It was published in our family network called "Lapira Family.Com". This was therapeutic for her.Since they were both spiritual, she was encouraged to read the Word, pray and remember the memories they built together.

As their mother, whenever, I am talking to Diva, I felt like I am doing the same to Dina They do

looked  alike from birth. As i gaze at her face, I know that I am looking at same face of Dina. Strange as it seems, I feel closeness to Dina with her.Diva is now married and have two beautiful boys. She, too is sustained and comforted by her strong and undaunted faith. I aapreciate anyone who have had experience with twins. Come and share with me.
