Do you know what the twin died of, cause of death?
Perhaps that could be useful to explore as part of the case?

let me give some more details: The doctor suspected that when the twin boys
were born that they were actually attached at the spine in utero and broke
apart when the mother had a fall during pregnancy. One baby had a tail at the
end of the spine and the other had an indentation. When they were 3 months old
one of them was taken to the hospital with gastro-enteritus. The other child
cried at home non stop so they finally decided to take him to hospital where
he calmed down. But the other twin died eventually. Surviving twin grew up
third child with two older ones around 10 years older and a younger sister.
When he was around 5 the older brother had some issues with a neighborhood
family and left to live with his grandparents. The surviving twin saw his twin
brother..as a twin same age as him at the foot of his bed until he was ten.
Survivor had some weird form of dyslexia where letters would shake and gave
him a headache and as he was artistic no one in Northeastern England bothered
to address this problem. He was somewhat coddled by his mother and older
sister but really it was his older sister who mostly acted as the mother as
the mother worked. So I see 5 different abandonments occurring if you count
the disconnection in urtero. He seems to have some kind of dissociative
disorder with two different personalities. He has never acknowledged the
personality that acts like a two year old with temper tantrums…but several
people who have had long term contact with him have been goaded so badly that
they want to kill him. He has never been physically threatening. It is the
manner of his communication which is completely irrational and mean and nasty.
Like he is pushing others to fight him..it is as if a two year ego is in the
body of a man…The other personality is fun and clever and nice and wouldn't
hurt a fly and loves animals to death and helps people in need and very
interested in the politically scenes. A genius in some areas and a moron in
other areas , When he works on a project he will work ten hours without
stopping and sees himself as an artist and if he is treated as a simple
construction worker…his bad side can come out. He expects and demands
appreciation for his intelligence and if he doesn't get it and he can't get
away from the situation…the demon all come out. I think frustration of any
kind…when he has to depend on others…can inspire little episodes of the
demon…but if it goes on too long the demon comes out and won't go away. He
is like two completely different vibrations when in one or the other
character.

The twin died of gastroenteritis. The surviving twin had anacardium lm around
5 or 6 years ago. There seemed to be a slowing down of swinging from one side
to the other for a couple of years. Then had issue with blocked vein in leg,
had operation and then 9 months later developed thyroid condition. Before the
thyroid medication and after the operation there were no episodes. Physical
pain during an episode can interrupt the episode where he goes into a period
of not talking for a week or two and then becomes normal.

Are there remedies for trauma in utero? Can someone tell me what they are? And
can normal worse from grief remedies touch the kind of traumatic loss that is
expressed at such a young age…and if so, what could they be? Thank you.

Years back I read a really fascinating article in one of the IFH “Small Remedies and Interesting Cases” series, on Berberis in cases of “multiple personalities” and dissociative disorders. I don’t know where to find it just now, but here’s one link on Berberis:

If I can find the book tomorrow, I’ll try to send more on it.

I was reading Anacardium in ""The spirit of homeopathic medicine"" from Didier Grandgeorge. There are two cases with twins on the three cases presented.
Case #2 is a ten year old boy who does nothing in class ; he is slow and nothing seems to interest him. A psychological report shows a problem of significant ambialence at the emotional level. the psychologist's hypothesis i that the boy had a twin who died in utero, etc.....

At the end, Didier Grandgeorge writes : "Anacardium is a very useful remedy when twins run in the family"".

Very interesting cases. And it is always interesting to read D. Grandgeorge.
An exerpt d Anacardium : .....""This person has a diffiicult character. Is it better to be an angel or a devil ?....""
...""In the physical sphere, we note the improvement of symptoms while eating, warts on the paslms of the hans and the soles of the feet, and eczema. Finally, it is a remedy for fits of nnerves in students who do not know...""

Hi, Shannon

It was the 1992 IFH conference that had the Berberis cases, which were presented by Andrew Lange, N.D. Lange hypothesized that Berberis vulgaris might be an interesting remedy to consider in cases of sexual abuse resulted in MPD.
