When a twin dies, does the other one feel something, I'm just curio because I saw a mother walking down the street with 5 kids, a set of twins and quintuplets I think - Hard Work!

At what age are you asking about these twins to be when one of them dies, please? Knowing that can make a difference in the answers that you will receive.

My mum had a twin sister-they were not identical. They were best friends, always together, sharing everything. When my mum died she was 39, and I can guarantee you that 11 years later, when my aunt hears her name, she bursts in to tears and can't control it. It has been incredibly hard for her. Now I don't know if it would have been less hard if it was just a sister and not a twin, but I always felt like these two had some kind of special connection.

There have been many instances throughout history where there seems to be some sort of unique connection between people because they have been twins.

I'm a twin
I also have a little sister
One night when I was curious if I could make myself cry
I imagined all my friends dying and see if I could imagine the pain I wold feel to see if I could cry from it
It didn't work so I moved to family and every other person I knew
When I imagined my twin brother dying I felt tremendous sadness
He is the only person I cried for
It doesn't mean that I don't care for anyone else
But he is the only person that I could make myself cry just from imagining losing him

My twin sister died 10 years ago, we were nearly sixteen. Like many twins, I had assumed that as we had been born together we would die together. I have never known all consuming pain and loss like the loss of a twin, 5 years later my brother also died in another tradgic accident, although it was tough losing my brother as well, I was still numb by the loss of my twin.
I have gone on and got married and have a beautiful daughter who's middle name is the same as my twins and mostly live is okay, however it is my / our?? Birthday on Sat 12th April, and I am right back to the 12th Dec 1996, when my sister died, the grief and sense of loss is just as acute, if not more so, as I am now aware of not having my twin in my life and what I have lost.
