Young Australian mother miraculously
gave birth on Thursday, May 8 to conjoined twins with two faces, two
brains inside one skull and share one body.
Renee and her partner welcomed their
daughters named Faith and Hope, via an emergency caesarean at Blacktown
Hospital last Thursday, six weeks before they were due.
Conjoined twins and their mother
Born with a rare condition called
diprosopus, which means they share the same body and vital organs but
have their own faces and brains which are connected by only one brain
stem, the girls have continued to surprise doctors with their
exceptional progress as they are breathing perfectly on their own and
feeding too.
Though they were born with one body, their parents have decided to call them twins.
