What Does Technology Did For ME?

Everybody doesn't exactly know what had actually happened the moment we first landed on Earth (during birth) including me. But this personal story are the accounts heard from words of mouth from people who had personally witnessed that first page in my book of life. My mom, my sisters, and my aunts.
Our family has this "special genetic pattern" as I call it. My great grandmother has a twin brother, but right after the delivery the boy DIED. My grandmother has a sister with twin brother, and right after the delivery the boy DIED. One of my mother's sister has a twin brother and it DIED right after birth.
My mom got me and I got a twin sister. During pre-natal check-ups doctors strangely didn't detect any possibility that I was there in my mom's womb :-) and only during delivery that they knew that we're twins. A baby girl and a very weak baby boy.
Since the doctors and didn't expect my mom will gave birth to a twins, after the baby girl was delivered, she was prepared to be transfered to the ward section, but after few hours while in the ward section she complains for another contraction inside, and that's when I came out.
According to their stories, based on our lineage, every twin (a girl and a boy) the boy always didn't make it his way to enjoy life. But it was broken because I am still here right now right here writing this blog.
Of course it's God's grace and decision for me to be here, and I know Technology available inside the hospital contributed a great help for me to survive. I can't explain exactly how it happens that I survived but one thing I can tell you that because of the hospital has these not so hi-tech equipment but at least there was this sophisticated facilities (at least during that time it was sophisticated) to keep cases like me to survive through life.
And that's what TECHNOLOGY has done for me AFTER GOD decided to let me live and enjoy life with my family and all my friends and acquintances and it's that miracle that made it possible for me to be able to pound my fingers right here over my keyboard and make it possible that you're right there reading my stories. :-)
