great news Gerri, so now you can have a proper cuddle. Long may the good progress continue

I really like all the atavars, people have been v inventive and it gives everyone an opportunity to see (& proud relatives to show off) special pictures like yours. Just wish we could click on them to see a larger version

Twins came home aged just 3 weeks!
No feeding tubes now and taking breast milk.
They are almost the same size now just a few ounces to go.


The Hospital did a test on the umbilical cord to see how identical they are.
We were told you cant get any closer..99.9%
When one gets the hic ups...so does the other one! lol

Mia and Cara names together mean....My beloved.
...and they are...:-)

Next report will be when they go to school lol

Great Nan Gerri x

Roy and Joan met up and it was lovely.
They went out for a meal and exchanged all the certs we had collected also brought him up to date with who was who.
They exchanged photos of both families and had a cuddle.
It went very well and they keep in touch weekly.
They are both really pleased to have found each other.

They are arranging a meeting for all the cousins ,partners and grandchildren to meet up in the not so distant future.
That should be fun :-)

I spoke to my friend today about buying Jessies death cert...she said no cos Joan and Roy are just happy to have one another.
My thoughts were that i'd like to know who the informant was. There might be another one! lol.......doubtful cos of her age...but ya never know lol.

I had my 1st cuddle with one of the twins yesterday....wonderful!

congratulations Gerri. It must have been a bit of a worrying time at first but glad everything is OK. Long may it continue.
Of course they are beautiful - whose own great grandchildren aren't!! They must look so tiny.

Congratulations Gerri ................ and everyone else.

Hi Gerry,
I bookmarked this thread so I could follow your endevours I have only been doing my tree for a few months. I just checked in and found your last posting. How absolutely wonderful everything has worked out so great you must be on a high. It doesn't get any better than reuniting family does it?

Roy and Joan are meeting up this week!
They are both thrillled to have found one another.
They have spoken on the phone.

Roy never knew he had any siblings.
Roy as we already know took Mr Sadlers name but was brought up in care homes and foster homes keeping the Sadler name.
He only found out about his Greenall name when he married!
He doesnt remember Jessie..

All through this i felt sorry for Jessie but giving up TWO children?
We're now wondering if there wasnt even more!
She kept Roy for at leaste 2 years then gave him away too!

..BUT alls well that ends well and i'm happy to have made this happen...with of course all your help :-)

When i think of this i get tingles up the back of my neck lol
It's a lovely ending.

Thankyou
Gerri x

Guess who i have just spoken to? lol

Roys eldest Daughter!

Got the Pm Dee also answered you....your a star!

We will phone that number tomorrow (Friday)

The last set of twins in my Family were my Grandad had twin Sisters.Rose and Violet b1889.

These twins are Mia and Cara.
They are in thier own sacks but share the one placenta. Mia hasnt much fluid in her sack at the moment and they are concerned....
On Tuesday docs will decide what to do....either...laser the placenta into two (maybe not cos theres not much room) or...deliver them by c section...or keep her in and try to keep them where they are for one more week.
Due date is 4th July.
They wiegh abt 3pound each at the moment.

My birthdays Friday the 15th April....fingers crossed! lol

Cross your fingers everyone!
