i was reading about this story the other day and forgot about it til I just saw the headline on CNN. The operation is over and they're both alive...made me cry, tears of joy!! It's a tough road ahead but I pray they make it. Other than being joined at the head they are such cute little boys...so precious. http://www.cnn.com/2016/10/14/health/conjoined-twins-separation-surgery/index.html
Yes, me too. It's a long road ahead for them. It's their motor skills that they have to learn, almost like being newborns again. Lot of therapy I'm sure but they'll only hav elost a year which isn't too bad. Hope everything else will be okay too. I just came upon the story yesterday and I just felt such a strong bond towards theses 2 little boys....don't know why.
I had seen that news on CNN tv last night and I'm also praying that the conjoined twins can be separated successfully so they can live a normal life in the future. Most of the conjoined twins I saw were workers in the carnival. There was this twin who are both male and about 20 years old that ride the unicycle as part of their act in a small time carnival. When we asked how they survive, they admitted that life is hard in the carnival but they have no other means of earning money because they support their parents, huh. What's sad with the conjoined twins is that one is normal with complete body parts while the other one who looks inferior in physical and mental capability.. has no sex organ.
I've seen some stories on TV about conjoined twins that were never separated. When you see things like this it makes you stop and thank God you are normal and maybe a bad back isn't the worse thing in the world. With these little boys, I'm worried about the weaker one...the one that had more problems and the one that the drs had the harder time with. it's a tough decision especially when one can die...but I think I read that they wouldn't have lived long like this, but who knows?
Just saw an update and seems they are slowly improving and sleeping in separate beds. ❤️ http://kdvr.com/2016/10/20/previous...nue-to-improve-now-sleeping-in-separate-beds/ Seems the Anias is having a little more trouble with Seizures, this was the twin that was in surgery 6 hrs longer and the weaker one. All of you who pray, please pray for these sweet little boys. I'm such a softy when it comes to babies and I'm typing this through tears and I don't even know these people.
