Thanks for the link. I made a copy as a word document and added Name and date to it so it would not be listed as for some one else.

Flutterfly, We had a double wedding over 38 years ago. Our oldest daughters are 7 weeks apart. (hers came early ours came late) The daughters are considered step sisters because the twins are genetically identical. The twins have striven for separate identities since grade school. They see each other three or four times per year.

JOE~so u accepted that u were married ta the sis right off the bat! u actually married her! tehehe! kudoos ur a brave man!
4give if i don't respond fast...waitin 4 net ta be set up @ homestead so ta post i gotta wait 4 laptop (hubby travels w/it brat!)
but gonna get it on the 10th!
~so have u been a h2o seeker 4 long?
i'm not sure if thats my diagnosis yet...i've just been havin things pop up over the last decade+ that no1 seems ta know why or what causes them!ESPECIALLY 'CAUSE I'M 35(& WAS QUITE A BIT YOUNGER WHEN THIS ALL STARTED)TYPE 1 DIABETIC & ALMOST 100LBS so i don't fit the ailments!
well...DUH BIG RED TRUCK... :othats why i'm sein' u doc is what i want ta say!instead i'm sent home ta just deal w/their pockets fuller!
~hopefully the doc in seattle can figure a twin thing out when 1 is diabetic(which of course is the catch all 4 everythin') & 1's not!
we (me & sha) think thats why they caught it @ all...they looked 4 a dianosis 4 sha cause they didn't have a ~catch all~!
~so wish us luck!
congrads on the longevity & blendin' of ur familys!
nice ta meetcha! have a good night!

Flutterfly, It took me a couple of reads before I realized you are used to texting. Some where in recent posts is a link to Symptoms list. Fill it out and take it with you. I gather that you and Sha live too far apart to be the advocate for each other. When you next go to the doctor, bring some one with to advocate for you. I have been sipping water all day for over 40 years. I have been Dx'd for I think about 5 years.

That will just NOT do, joe!

Why haven't u done something about it! Jan will tell ya if she lived closer to her twin, some of the ucky things life throws at is made better by a twinzy hug! My face is so sad for her! Here's a twin sending jan and jan's twin a hug! Boy joe, ya shoulda done better than 250 miles man! I think I really would die! No joke! They haven't been able to split us up since before birth! Even if we had a knock out drag out fight....we still ended up at the basketball game together that same night!;) your wife will know what I mean!

Sha, who is so enjoying this 2 hour delay...now praying for cancellation so these pjs can stay on a while longer:)

The split was her choice to stay employed. The first split happened on the honey moon when her sister and BIL flew back to Texas. He ended up stationed in Grand Forks, North Dakota. That was over 38 years ago.

Okay Joe, you're off the hook, but remember to give her my hug!:)

Sha who is now off to pick up other people's kids to get them to school...I guess not everyone loves 2 hour delays:p
