Siamese twins

I don't know what to make of this, I dare say you've seen the clips of the spider sisters on TV, . . I know life is sacred but do you really think these sisters should've been born.

If surgery is possible, which I doubt, one of them will surely die.

What's you views on twins like this ?

Re: Siamese twins

I haven't seen or know anything about them. What programme was it on Nero?

Re: Siamese twins

Did the mother know she was expecting siamese twins?

Re: Siamese twins

I haven't heard anything about the twins either

Re: Siamese twins

Me neither. Was it current Nero or documentary type item?

Re: Siamese twins

It will be screened shortly, it will be on the discovery channel, they've been showing short clips of them, they each have a torso but only one pair of legs, they get about walking on their arms and their two legs like a spider, hence the name.

Re: Siamese twins

I think it is on next week. There were twins conjoined at the head I think, and when they operated on them, one died and I think the other one did as well.

It is such a shame that they were allowed to be born, or to be allowed to grow up. Not much life for them and being stared at wherever they go. Still I suppose from the Mum's point of view, they are living. It is sad to see. They have to be admired as well for being brave.

Re: Siamese twins

The program is on tonight at 9pm on Discovery, . . don't think I'll watch however.

Re: Siamese twins

I won't watch it either.

I'm just thankful that my twins were perfect, even though I didn't know I was expecting twins until just 3 weeks before they were born.

Re: Siamese twins

Personally I think it'll be a dreadful thing to watch.

I heard them say that god made them like this, . . all I can say is god's got a warped sense of humour.
