Your Story Matters

Whether you write a few sentences or several pages, or whether your loss occurred early or later in pregnancy, your experience may help another family feel recognized, understood, and less alone. By submitting your story below, you are helping us build a space for shared healing and advocacy.

Story Submission Options

Families may choose to:

• Share publicly on the IVTSF website

• Share anonymously

• Include photographs or memorial images

• Contribute stories for educational or advocacy purposes

• Submit stories privately for future research or archival initiatives

Our Commitment to Families

The International Vanishing Twin Syndrome Foundation (IVTSF) is committed to sharing stories in a respectful, trauma-informed, and family-centred manner. We recognize that experiences of multiple loss are deeply personal and may evolve over time.

We will:

• Respect family language and identity preferences

• Never alter the meaning of shared experiences

• Honor requests for anonymity or removal

• Approach all submissions with compassion and dignity

• Avoid sensationalising grief or trauma
