Remarkable Conjoined Twins Were Born By a Mother From India

In the rarest of medical conditions are conjoined twins born. This results in two babies being born in one body. Numerous surgeons and medical pediatricians in an Indian hospital witnessed a very rare scene, as they are finding out how to separate the two babies without risking the life of one baby or another.

The twins have been born with one body, united only to have two heads. They have yet to see their mother as they were transferred to a better hospital to facilitate their needs as being born a conjoined twin requires more special attention and care since their condition needs to be taken a closer look at.

Transferred to  All India Institute of Medical Science Hospital, the nurses and doctors are deciding whether or not they will perform surgery or let the conjoined twins stay intact, as the chances of survival are pretty slim for one baby when surgery is performed. Their parents, Urmila and Subhash Sharma, are currently recovering at Cygnus JK Hindu Hospital in Sonipat. Actually they were taken by surprise that their little twins would be born conjoined. Dr. Shikha Malik, one of the doctors of the conjoined twins, described the situation of the two babies to the family, describing them as having two heads, two necks, two spines and two separate esophagus and trachea. But they have only one heart, one stomach, and one lung.

This makes it difficult to decide on their operation. Since they also share vital organs, one baby is dependent on the other in terms of their behavior. Dr. Shikha said "So far they are doing remarkably well. It is a gift that they have come this far. We can only pray that there is a future for them. We are trying all we can to help them and we're speaking to experts from all over the world to see if there's any chance of surgery. But it is looking unlikely at the moment.

All hopes are being expressed and prayers are being offered on the condition on the two babies. As of now they are currently under observation before having to undergo surgery. Dr. Minu Bajpai is studying their case as a pediatric surgeon. Still, it is a great blessing indeed that the babies are doing fine despite being born a conjoined twin, and the parents are just happy to see their little angels despite their condition. Our hopes are with them as well as they continue to define their amazing story despite the challenges and struggles they may face ahead.
