We are a New Zealand-wide group for those who have lost one or more or all of their twins, triplets or more in a multiple birth from early pregnancy to childhood and beyond including the loss of a twin sibling in adulthood.
We provide contact with others who have had similar experiences through our meetings, phone support and through our quarterly magazine Hearts & Wings. Knowing others are out there who have experienced this kind of loss breaks the feelings of isolation that are so commonly felt. The magazine reaches people anywhere in the country, from the big cities to the small towns where there really might be nobody else to talk with. It contains stories from readers, information on topics such as grief for couples, children, memory making ideas, poems, articles and an anniversary page where the names of our lost ones are acknowledged.
For those in Auckland, we hold an informal get together of parents raising a lone twin (or the survivor of higher multiples) called Angel Friends. We meet in the friendly environment of one another’s homes. Lone twins and their siblings are most welcome to come along and play while we share our thoughts and feelings over a shared morning tea.
