Wow, I love this story! I'm only onto Chapter 3, but it's great so far. It's really amazing though -- I'm a twin myself. My sister and I were born when my mom was only five months pregnant. My mom once told me that she cried when they asked her whether she wanted to be knocked out for the anesthesia because one doctor said, "If we put you under, by the time you wake up, both of your babies might be dead." We had to stay in the hospital for another four months, but both of use grew up fine and healthy. They called us miracle babies.
Sorry for rambling, I just wanted to say that I can really relate to this, you know?
