One of my friends has just been diagnosed with twin to twin transfer syndrome.
I know a little about it and have read a little more today so I know it's an horrendous diagnosis, she had mentioned laser surgery and that they may be delivered at 23 weeks but she's totally destroyed and not making s huge amount of sense.
She's only confided in me so soon after her diagnosis (which she got on Thursday) because I had prem twins (although not identical and at 33 weeks). Her husband works in Dubai and is unlikely to be back in the country for at least 2-3 weeks at the earliest.
She moved back to her parents with her 2 dc yesterday and is trying to understand everything but I was wondering if anyone could tell me a bit more about the condition, the treatment she may be offered and most of all, i'd absolutely love to hear any stories with positive outcomes if anyone would be happy to share.
I really want to support her as much as I can with however her pregnancy proceeds.
