one man said "i was a twin, she died when we were born!" althea's image of the "1 in 10" people came to mind - it felt like i had gone fishing into a pool of 10 people and caught the 1 womb twin survivor.
now when i ride the train or walk in a crowd, i try to pick out the 1 in 10 as an interesting exercise just to feel the scope of 'not being alone' with this syndrome.
in talking with my new womb twin friend, it seems he has been happy with his life and has not missed his twin. he knows everyone is where they need to
