After surviving a two-month bed-rest extended
NICU stay, high-risk twin pregnancy, and two-time
near-death experience, Crystal was emotionally, physically, and spiritually
transformed by her medical trauma. She wanted to share her “Emotional Tale of
Empowerment” and inspire other families navigating through a
similar journey with a message of strength, encouragement, and hope.
She has connected with thousands of families with her patient advocacy work and on her social media handles through her writing. Her essays on parenting have been featured in Woman’s World Magazine, Brain Child Magazine, and Twiniversity where she is a senior staff writer and teacher. She is thrilled for the launch of her forthcoming book Twin to Twin.
You will be amazed at the calmness Crystal delivers her harrowing story of survival of herself and her twins. It will inspire you in whatever area you may be struggling:
A crisis when expecting: One-minute Crystal was sitting at a
candlelight dinner in Paris with her husband. The next she was back home in
Houston, sitting in her Ob-Gyn’s office concerned that she was having a second
miscarriage. Instead, she found out she was
pregnant with twins who have a life-threatening condition called Twin-to-Twin
Transfusion Syndrome. That means that Baby B is transfusing blood (disproportionately)
to Baby A.
A riveting true story: Twin-to-Twin is a raw and
inspirational story filled with tenderness, vulnerability, and humor. It
chronicles the wildest, most terrifying and challenging year of Crystal’s life,
which is also the most beautiful and eye-opening. Her hope is that it will
bring strength to other women dealing with their own personal trials and
tragedies, so they can also triumph.
