SUMMARY:Gaming for Remembrance
DESCRIPTION:During the week of February 8th-February 14th\, we will host a video game fundraiser on a twitch steam in memory of my twins\, Twin A Jordan Suzanne and Twin B Ariana Catherine. Ariana was born with anencephaly and Jordan was stillborn. \nThey received photographs with the help of a NILMDTS photographer\, and remark that “Now\, five years later\, we have these beautiful photos to look back on. Instead of focusing on the ugliness of their deaths\, we can instead see the beauty of their short-lived lives\, and the immense love that we still have for them. We owe it all to NILMDTS and Rachael.” \nYou can donate online and join the Twitch livestream here:  https://www.twitch.tv/therosepatchgaming \n
