How to Survive When One Twin Dies eBook Vicky Burley
This book breaks your heart. And yet somehow, there is peace at the end of it all. It is the account of one mother's epic emotional journey carrying much wanted naturally conceived twin girls. This unique journey concludes at the end of the second trimester - for one of them, Coran Engyl. But both she and sister Ella need to stay together until Ella's womb journey is completed at 38 weeks. A journey that would fill any mother with so many mixed emotions that only someone experiencing such tragedy combined with such joy, can begin to articulate it. At the birth, which is pretty high tech despite all the mother's wishes and previously held beliefs, both girls are welcomed... yet whilst there is celebration and joy for Ella there is a high degree of compassion, comprehension and understanding about Coran where there may have been total despair.This understanding developed during those ten difficult weeks after Coran died, before she was born shortly after Ella. Vicky talks candidly about how she discovers she is initially pregnant for the first time, then the realisation she is carrying twins and how that exquisite joy crashed with the realisation that Coran wouldn't be able to touch or experience a mortal life this time round. She tells us of the funny things that happen - of painting Yin and Yang on her bump and small funny, family stuff, common to us all, but mostly, we are drawn into getting an insight of her experience on this journey after she finds out one of her children won't make it. Her open and frank account of what it is like to hold within oneself both a living and a dead child gives light and hope for anyone else in such a similar tragic situation. It will never, ever, be easy. Such a dark experience is bound to push a mother to all emotional limits but Vicky somehow found a path whereby she didn't go off the rails or go into denial. Her story will definitely help others.
The experience with both her daughters has clearly enriched her as a person and you can feel that as you read her journal-style account. It reads well and easily and you want to know more about the relationships developing both internally and around her. She does not intellectualise or attempt to psychoanalyse her feelings in this extraordinary situation but rather responds with compassion and intuition. We read of the ironic aftermath which sounds like another story-in-the-making and marvel at how mothers' can cope with such adversity and challenge.
This book made me cry. But I know it will help mums-to-be looking for those desperate answers. It will also help other family members and give them that inkling they need in making sense of it all. I am Coran and Ella's grandmother and had the privilege to be present at their birth after these difficult months. Coran was like a tiny beautiful fairy in my hand as I said both hello and goodbye to my grand-daughter and then left the new parents to alternately grieve for and welcome their daughters. This happened nearly eight years ago, although the journal was written entirely at the time and is unchanged apart from what happened later. Since that time, Vicky has helped many TAMBA parents come to terms with whats happening when their unique pregnancy outcome transpires to be less than ideal. She does not offer specific and concrete "how to"..s; That would be impossible as all of us are so very different in dealing with emotional trauma. She simply explains unreservedly and very opennly how it was for her, which, in itself, is a map in an otherwise pretty bleak wilderness.
I really hope fervently that few mothers will actually NEED this book. For anyone having to undergo the trauma of losing a twin evokes huge empathy and compassion in us all, yet we have really have no idea what these mums are going through. But for those mums who DO have to experience it, this will help. And so will time.

How to Survive When One Twin Dies eBook Vicky Burley Reviews
I love this book, and how it was written from the mother's prospective. The book really took you on a journey into the lives of husband and wife, along w/ the twins. The book gave you so much information on the thoughts that go through a mother and father that are expecting twins. The book also gives you the emotional side of when you find out that one twin will become a angel baby. The book captured my attention from beginning to end. I really enjoyed how the author was very open and transparent with her feelings. My favorite moments was reading how deeply she cherished both her babies, and the dedication and love she has for the twin that went on to heaven. I would recommend this book to any parent that is experiencing (or previously experienced) a loss of a infant/newborn, child; you can be father or mother (this book is a great resource); this book helps through that process.

An honest and compelling account of a horrendous situation to find yourself in. A must for those needing some words of encouragement and amazing strength
For those who are dealing with grief this is a must. A searingly heartbreaking, yet beautiful, account of how to face the unfaceable. If you need to feel strong again, or know someone who does, then please read this.
For anyone who has suffered the loss of a twin during pregnancy or even a missed miscarriage, as I have, this book will show you that you are not alone, and that there is light at the end of the tunnel. In this beautifully written journal, Vicky Burley shares her experience, strength and hope with the reader, inspiring us with her bravery and insight.
When I first started reading this book, it immediately broken my heart and filled me with such sadness. As I continued to read, I felt the love and affection, as well as the strength and perseverance of this family, and could not wait to get to the end. Congratulations on your loving family.
How to Survive When One Twin DiesThis book is a deeply moving and very personal account of feeling, thinking and living through the death of a baby. The author speaks in a very accessible, conversational tone which makes the emotion most profound. I think this book will great provide comfort to those who sadly experience the same heartbreaking trauma.
The author herself refers to an intense feeling of loneliness at the time her daughter passed away and I feel that this book can offer itself up as a friend to those searching for an empathetic voice. The book is written with clarity, warmth and courageous honesty and I would very much recommend this book to those who have been through the same situation.
I would, however, also recommend this book to those who have no personal link to the title as it is an inspiring account of how one can account for one's feelings in a forgiving and ultimately loving way. There is no strive for perfection or resolution particularly - more an understanding of the realism that grief, loss and heartbreak take time to overcome and the scars may not ever "heal". Instead, the path that is offered is one of nurturing love and ultimately an acceptance of oneself and all that lies within.
