Siamese twins were separated a year after birth: this is how they look seven years later

Doctors separated these Siamese twins when they were only one year old — a moment that would forever mark their lives and the lives of everyone who fought for them. Their tiny bodies had come into the world fused at the head, sharing bone, blood vessels, and a reality that very few children survive. The doctors knew the risks, but they also knew that doing nothing meant denying the girls any chance at an individual future. And so, even with fear in their hearts, they took the risk and performed the surgery.
