And now a lil something to celebrate

So with how the world seems to be going to hell in a hand basket as of late with civil unrest, hurricanes run amuck, plagues and just usual chaos in the world right now thought Id bring up a little something to celebrate.

Those that have been on the site for quite some time may recall me mentioning this but this past Friday, we celebrated the 18th birthday, from what we still understand, of CT's youngest and smallest surviving twins. Our kids were born 18 yrs ago, our son was 1lb 5oz and 12.5" long and our daughter was 1lb 3oz were given a 10% chance of survival.

We were told that if they did survive, the chances of them having a normal life would be extremely low and prepare for many physical and mental issues.

Well, our son got the lion's share of issues, he is autistic but not severely, our daughter was taking AP classes in high school. They have now both graduated, our daughter is in college now and our son will be working with a group to help hone his vocational abilities. If it werent for Covid, he'd be working in a vet's office.

All in all, for could of been a less than stellar outcome for us, we have two amazing kids who beat the odds of survival.

I know its not anything to celebrate for you guys but thought Id bring a lil happiness to the site.
