~Welcome to our story~


On April 16, 1995 Easter Sunday our world tuned upside down, and we began a new hole new world as we new it.
Our darling Twins Tasha and Bobby had drowned.
 The family was all home for Easter dinner. We had eaten dinner, and the twins were wanting to go outside and play with there new Easter toys. We told them to go ahead and we would clean of the table and get desert ready.
We stood and watch Bobby try to hit his ball one his new T-ball set, and watch as his twin sister Tasha would run after the ball for him.
They then went

down by the barn and was feeding the goats corn.  We all laughed how one would run for corn, and then the other.  
Tasha and Bobby Mom went to call the twins in for desert telling them that the strawberry's were ready but no answer was gotten. I went an called and still no answer.  We all started to yell but heard nothing.
The twins were found in a pond that had filled with melted snow. Tasha was face down, and Bobby was face up with a fist full of Tasha's hair.
CPR was started right away. 911 was called, they came and took them to the local hospital, where we were told things were not good. After about 1 hour they got both kids breathing, and life link was coming for about a hour away. The twins were put on the chopper, and we were on the road for the longest drive we had ever taken in our lives.
 When we got to the hospital we were told not to hold out on any hope, because the twins were not going to make it. There just was no chance at all.
We were allowed to go and see both of them, for a min. and then were told that we had to leave.
Within 10 min. of us being at he hospital, Tasha passed away. Our world was falling apart. We were told that Bobby would never make it the night. It was only min. before he would join his Sister in Heaven.
Well that night turned into day, and Bobby was still fighting.
Days turned into a week, and Bobby was still fighting for his life.
After many test, scans, and X-rays, to many to even remember Bobby being on a vent to help him breath the day came that they said the vent had to come out, and we had to put a trachea in. Bobby's Mother said NO WAY. My son won't be able to talk with a trachea. So we were told that then the vent was going to be removed, that we would only have about 3 to 5 min. before Bobby would pass away, because he was not breathing on his own at all.
The vent was removed with us in the room. All of a sudden Bobby started breathing all on his own, and the Dr. just stood there with his mouth hanging open. Bobby was watch by the Dr. for 10 min. as he was breathing on his own with a shocked look on his face. He then went up to Bobby and told him that he had been playing games with him, and he could breath on his own all the time.
 We then were told to put Bobby in a home, and get on with our lives. Bobby Mom had a new born at home who was just 3 months old.
 We said no Bobby was going home with his family, and there was not other way it was going to happen. The Dr.'s painted the blackest picture that they could. They just didn't want us to take him home. It would be to much for one person to deal with.
Well to bad, Bobby belonged with his family and that is the way it was going to be. Bobby was brought home, comatose and in a vegetative state.
 On June 15, Bobby came home. Three months of being in the hospital. The last statement on Bobby discharge papers say's " Child will not live for more than Two weeks after being removed for the hospital.
 Bobby's Twin Sister Tasha is  up in Heaven along with her other Sister Serina who passed away from SIDS in 1992.
Our family is very blessed to have Two Angels in Heaven watching over Bobby and us.
Our family is also very blessed to have a Angel right here on earth with us.
We get to look into a face of a Angel every morning and get a smile that will melt your heart.
 Well fooled them.
