My story

Our much longed for, and long awaited, twin boys were born 12 weeks early on November 5th 2006.  Alexander weighed 2lbs 9oz and Joshua 3lbs1oz.  At 3 weeks old, Alex contracted meningitis, and on December 10th 2006 he passed away in our arms.  He was just five weeks old.

We are very lucky to have spent time with Alex before he died, and we are very lucky to have our beautiful son Josh, who will help us get through this difficult time.  Having two children does not make it any easier to lose one, but it does give us a reason to keep going.

Please consider making a donation to Meningitis Research Foundation in memory of our precious son.
