A thirty
two-year-old Sharma northern India and her husband from could not get regular
ultrasound scans done due to lack of funds. As a result, they found out just
two weeks beforehand that the baby was suffering from a serious complication.
The baby
girl, who was born by C-section and weighed 7lbs 7oz, was delivered with two
heads, two necks, two spines, but only one tiny body. The baby girl is
technically considered to be conjoined twins, and they suffer from a rare
condition called dicephalic parapagus, states a Hollywood Life report. She is
presently alive and healthy.
A
"meticulous and challenging" surgery could be the key to saving the
twins' life, but the procedure can't take place until they are in stable
condition, Dr Sehgal said.
The doctor did not confirm whether or not the
surgery would be separating the babies or just easing their 'conjoined' condition.
Jesus mercy!
