About

  • This blog was set up in 2006 as a resource for parents of multiple birth children.

    Then it moved on to include journalism, fiction, media requests and advice under the 'Write away' category as well as the odd bit of nonsense about my family and eating too much cake. Then it sort of stopped. But I still pop up here now and again when the fancy takes me.

    Thanks for reading.

Devoted parents aim to raise cash to help care for twins with "incurable" illness

PARENTS of 15-month-old twins are raising as much cash as they can to help care for their baby daughters, amid fears they won't live to see their fourth birthday.

Lydia and Ella Thompson have incurable Tay-Sachs Disease which leaves them unable to crawl, sit up, walk, or talk. Peterborough Today reports that the little girls, will lose their sight, hearing and movement.

Now parents Leann and Dean are doing everything they can to make their lives easier. A special fund has been set up to help care for the twins and is reported to currently stand at £10,500.

A detailed and moving report from Peterborough Today is here.
