Now for something completely different, I’ll document here, how I am convinced that I’m a Twin. Let’s go all the way back to pre-natal habitation. In the womb of our mother, we twins were “back-to-back.” By this configuration our birth mother was unaware that she carried two fetuses.
When we were born, we remained back-to-back and came through the birth canal arms linked!
Because we both came forth at the same time, our birth mother thought there was only one birth.
At first, the medical staff were thinking (conjoined twins) until they untangled us. Knowing the unwed mother was going to put the baby up for adoption, and since there was a twin, they decided to conceal my sister. Thinking the birth was an act of God and being a Catholic hospital- they wanted part of it.
Now that the hospital staff had a newborn, it was decided they would hide the baby in an unused “Freeza” which was nothing more than a cold storage room (used before the days of refrigeration).
It was further decided that my sister would go to the next mother that had a stillbirth or miscarriage. Either way, it did not matter which Catholic hospital that it occurred in, they would make it work. If you’re following along, you must be wondering how I know all these details. I’ll get to that soon enough.
As it turned out, there was an accidental death of a newborn. The baby was dropped onto the floor and died. To console the mother, my sister was presented and the story goes that a twin died at birth. And guess what? They’ve got a body to prove it! This is how to steal a newborn!
I’m guessing now that the new mother knew about the changeling and did her due diligence in hospital and learned how the newborn girl came to be.
Unable to contain her grief, the new mother must have contacted her new daughter’s Grandmother, in the hope that the twins should be together.
This is where our maternal Grandmother searched out my adoptive Grandmother, to effect a reunion with us twins. We had visits at my adoptive Grandmother’s home when we were approximately 3 or 4 years of age. This occurred fairly regularly, until the time came when my adoptive Grandmother decided to tell my adoptive Parents.
We twins were seated on the floor just off the kitchen of my adoptive Grandmothers home and overheard the whole story. That is how I know so much about this!
They went on and on, reciting Bible Verses, as the story was related to them.
The visits with my twin ceased, but on the way home, I remembered thinking: I am a Twin! I am a Twin! Not even knowing what a twin was.
The Truth is stranger than Fiction.
Quite so!
ADDENDUM: A Statement of Personal Facts and Beliefs
Posted on Tuesday, July 08, 2025
Twin births took place at 05:10 a.m. on Friday, July 08, 1955, at St. Paul’s Hospital (on Burrard Street) in Vancouver, B.C., CANADA.
I was measured to be 19½ inches long and weighed 7 pounds 8 ounces, if the staff can be believed in their record keeping.
I carried my stolen twin sister into this world on my back (her arms linked with mine, back-to-back). How many times have they done this—stolen a twin and gotten away with it, before or since?
This ADDENDUM was drafted on April 29, 2025, with the liquid courage provided by “two double Rusty Nails” – the same number that was used to crucify Christ our Lord.
The decommissioning and demolition of St. Paul’s Hospital on Burrard Street can’t come soon enough. I hold the “Sisters of Providence” and their management morally responsible for what I believe to be this egregious violation and abduction of my twin sister. They would do well to reflect on what these Bible verses mean: Matthew 19:6, Mark 10:9, Revelation 12:4. Could these verses (as many verses do in the Holy Bible) have a dual meaning?
How many times have one or the other twins “died at birth?” I was said to have died at birth—what an exaggeration! I went on to lead a full life of seventy years.
Let’s rendezvous and reunite somewhere in the middle. I have questions that only my twin and I know the answers to. No imposters, please!
This ADDENDUM is nothing,
if not a monumental RED
HERRING!
Enough said!
