I am not a twin, but I do have a friend that is a twin of another. He and I, one of the twins I was with that I will call Mark, were in store, a video game store to be exact, well his brother who I will call Andy, had gotten in a car accident.

There was no phone call or anything but Mark had suddenly stopped talking in the middle of his sentence. I wasn't sure what was going on in his head, but he had this sudden urge to go to the hospital, saying his brother was hurt.

Well, on the way, I was driving, he just suddenly started to cry. When I asked what was wrong he said he could not 'feel' his brother anymore. I didn't really understand what he was talking about until we got to the hospital and found out that his brother had died.

I just thought that I should share my experience with a twin before, I was really saddened by the loss of a very good and close friend, all three of use grew up together, but I thought it was amazing how far apart they were and he being able to tell what was going on with his brother.

I'm not sure how the connection between twins works all that well, but it is still amazing.
