Multiples -- Babies in Litters -- Dixon Quads
http://www.dixonquads.com
Ever heard of anyone conceiving QUINTUPLETS (5 BABIES!) while on birth control?! Here's a true story. Check out this website about a real-life family's story from Dallas, Texas, the mom, her high-risk pregnancy, the multiple birth. Great story and helpful links about multiples. You can even donate to the cause. |

They weren't the result of fertility treatment, and they are even more rare, because they were born at home, with no high-tech treatment at all. All survived. And here's the rare part: they were identical, I'm pretty sure. Cathy Weeks Mommy to Kivi Alexis 12/01 |

Yes, that sounds right - it was during the Depression. They weren't the result of fertility treatment, and they are even more rare, because they were born at home, with no high-tech treatment at all. All survived. And here's the rare part: they were identical, I'm pretty sure. Yes, that's what the doctors thought. (It can't be confirmed since this was in the days prior to genetic testing, but the available tests pointed towards them being identical.) All the best, Sarah |

Doubts aside, It's true. I know them personally.

I respect your privacy and do expect you to do so in such a forum. But what I imagine is that you want further authentication of and information about the Dixon Quads story. The reason for a P.O. Box for the Quad Fund is because the family does not have a home of their own. And for privacy and security reasons, they would not offer it to the hundreds of daily visitors to their website even it if they did. And the person that is the Trustee on the account is not 'a random person' but rather the great grandfather of the Dixon Quads. Since they are not a non-profit organization, checks are made out to the Trustee of the account. This cause, the Dixon Quad Fund, began locally as a grass-roots promotion in the Dallas area. If you are in the DFW area, tune in to The Word 100.7, Christian Talk Radio, on Wednesday, April 6th. That afternoon there will be a live interview and discussion on the family and the Fund. Click here for talk radio station's website: http://www.thewordfm.com In the least, please add Liz Dixon and the Quads to your prayers. |

Actually, ma'am, the folks here know a great deal about me. I've been here for years, and my first post to the newsgroup was not a plea for money. The same cannot be said for you. You might be the most sincere creature in the world. Or, you might be the creator of the website, the recipient of the funds, and a shyster extraordinaire. How are we supposed to know? Just because you say so? Sorry. I'm busy caring for, and paying for, my own four children. --angela |

in which case you can suggest to them they resolve these issues, a picture of mum resting in hospital and a scan picture would help, there are a lot of fake multiples sites on the internet, so people are not going to send money unless they are sure someone is genuine. Anne |
