Now, almost seven years have passed since that fragile moment when their lives were placed in the hands of brave surgeons. Time has brought progress, hope, setbacks, and challenges. Sadly, both girls have been diagnosed with intellectual disabilities—an outcome many specialists feared, but one the family has learned to face with strength and love.
One of the sisters has managed to take only a few steps in her lifetime. She can barely walk and does not speak, expressing herself mostly through gestures, smiles, and sounds. The other sister is slightly stronger; she can stand on her own for moments at a time, but still cannot walk fully or independently. Their development has been slow, fragile, but never without hope.
