| Not these twins |
The anonymous man wrote the cry for help on Reddit , after admitting that he and his wife had 'tried everything' to tell them apart.
His desperation is due to the fact that one of the twins has serious health issues and needs medication every four hours.
He wrote:
"If he doesn't have his medication it leads to significant consequences. The boys are completely identical. Even me and my wife can't tell them apart and have been drawing on Adam's arm every day with permanent marker."He added:
"The twins were at Grandma's and after a bath rubbed off the text, Grandma accidentally gave Aaron's medication to Adam.
"Adam ended up very sick and Aaron in hospital for a week. This is a serious, extreme situation and I don't want to take this risk again. We have had other mix-ups with the boys but it has never wound up this bad."
He said they've tried everything from nail polish to bracelets to anklets to specific colours of clothes for each boy but they want something more permanent to identify them with.
"I read online about someone tattooing a single dot on one of the twins and also about piercing ears.
"I really hate to say it, but we are here. I need to do something permanent. I could have lost both my sons last weekend and I'm desperate.
"I am really only after permanent solutions. Believe me when I say we have tried everything else before and it didn't work. Please help me. I don't want to lose my boy."Some reddit users gave some suggestions. One said:
"My friend has a similar issue and used to paint her boys' toenails. She ended up getting a dot tattooed on the bottom of one boy's foot".
"I think the ear piercing is a great idea, very low risk. Babies often have their ears pierced while they are young with no extreme side effects"Another suggested a henna tattoo might be a better and less permanent option.
He shld do something else na, like cutting d hair of one of dem

Lol. Ds is funny sm ow sha bt y pierce a boy's ear wen u cn do d dot tattoo if u tink tattoo will hlp u identify dem easily
ReplyDeleteY not try haircut
ReplyDeleteOne ear piercing can also work. With time, when they ate older, u can easily dispense wit the earrings and d piercing could cover with time.
ReplyDeleteEeyah
ReplyDeleteThe ear piercing thing is a good idea
ReplyDeleteI think the dot tattoo will be better
DeleteIncredible. Do what you have to do pops but not on their faces. And if you don't tattoo on their face how would you see the Tats when they are dressed up. I suggest different Hair cuts.

You dont need tattoo am also a father of a set of very identical set of twin but what he can do is to get a wrist bound that have a different colors and permanent on color for each one of them simple, as they are growing definitely they will started developing a natural means of identification for each on of them.

ReplyDeleteYeah correct
DeleteLol
ReplyDeleteA single dot will be OK, that's if it would injure the poor boy.
Cute boys tho
Na him born am do as u like
ReplyDeleteHe should look for another means to ide
ReplyDeleteOn a lighter note; this post is funny
ReplyDeleteIf I were d father I will go ahead & give d sick child a mark in less obvious areas
I believe as they grow older, d parents would be able 2 differentiate them
Ok. Linda observe!
ReplyDeleteMaka y?
ReplyDelete-D great anonymous now as Vivian Reginalds
He shld pierce the ear of one of the twin. That will help
ReplyDeleteVry funny...a dot tatoo is beta
ReplyDeleteReally
ReplyDeleteDon't make decisions for them now.
ReplyDeletePlease no tattoos but ear piercing is welcome
ReplyDeleteBad idea.
ReplyDeleteHe should try something else.
#FINEST
A wrist tag would take care of the confusion.
ReplyDeletePlease try haircut.
ReplyDeletePlease try haircut.
ReplyDeleteWhy not just cut one baby's hair.or do a dot tattoo on the arm
ReplyDeleteChewwww they don't have a prob joo. So many thins to do. A simple haircut will clear the situation
ReplyDeleteI like twins
ReplyDeleteHair cut is preferable but d other might not like it n fall sick so ear.
ReplyDeletePiercings and tattoos are horrible ideas. Some employment screen people who have these: eg Aviation
ReplyDeleteseen. next please
ReplyDeleteYes ear piercing. It will heal
ReplyDeleteThe remover of the one eye is a good ideal.
ReplyDeleteSeen.
ReplyDeleteHe should tattoo them.
ReplyDeleteThe problem is that Nigerians have seen the word tattoo and therefore, can't see beyond that. Guys, he said it's a life/death issue and Onyx is saying that they are only 1 he should "calm down" when they grow older he'll be able to tell them apart? what makes you think they'll see two with the way things are going? Please, he should get a piercing or tattoo a dot biko.
ReplyDeleteTHAT'S DAFT. THE FATHER I CAN UNDERSTAND BUT NOT THE MOTHER......WHAT A LAZY THING!!.SHE SHD NOTE THEIR PERSONALITIES AS THEY CAN NEVER BE THE SAME. ONE WOULD BE QUITE WHILE THE OTHER COULD BE AGRESSIVE...ONE COULD BE A CHARMER WHILE THE OTHER IS WITHDRAWN ...SHE CAN ALSO CHECK FOR VERY FAINT BIRTHMARKS. AGAIN ONE COULD BE A TINY BIT TALLER OR HAVE LONGER OR SHORTER HANDS OR FATTER FINGERS . IF ALL ELSE FAILS THEY SHD LOOK FOR A MARKER THAT FADES IN WEEKS AND MARK ONE! WITHIN THE TIME IT FADES THEY GET TO STUDY WHICH IS WHICH. SILLY HEADS!!!! GRRRRR!!

From my African point of view, Nigeria wicked tribal marks should be the best permanent solution. No side effects with shinkini money.
