The doctor stared at the screen silently. We had just found out that we were having twin girls, and we were anticipating a celebratory sonogram. Yet the doctor’s silence spoke volumes in my head. Finally, he turned his chair around toward us and invited us to go into another, more comfortable room. It was in this room where he uttered the words “twin-to-twin-transfusion syndrome” and a laser surgery that is a possible fix. I do not remember much more from that conversation because of the ringing in my ears.
Most excellent, Ray. Thanks for sharing your heart.
