REMEMBERING

My twin sister and I learned we were identical twins, not fraternal as we were always led to believe, based on the DNA testing done prior to her bone marrow transplant, of which I was the donor.  Really, we simply couldn't believe it!!  We looked quite similar but not identical.

As I take a closer look at old photos, it's such a surprise to see just how often we were dressed alike! And what a goof I was.....my sister quietly on the right as I clowned on the left.

Birthdays aren't the same without you Nancy.......

Hi Mouse -- Happy birthday!

I'm pretty sure that's you on the right and Nancy on the left. But then again, you said you weren't identical! Hope you're getting some rest.

Love,
Kelly
