Hannah Howell- Mom Holds Separated Twins For The First Time
Summary:
Just recently, two twin babies named Jadon and Anias, who were previously conjoined at the head, were separated. The parents were so thrilled that the procedure was successful. It was a 27 hour long surgery. The website shows touching pictures of the mother holding her son for the first time and you can see the pure happiness on her face. Anias is healing at a slower rate than Jadon, but there it looks like promising outcomes for both of them.
Analysis:
This is one of the most touching and miraculous things I have ever hear of. The advances in the medical field that are being made are astounding. I wish the best for this family and hope that the babies recover fully and are able to live happy, healthy lives.
