Seems they haven't attempted the surgery yet, they're going to try to do it next month (February)...

It was a different pair that I was thinking of. The two were connected via the side some how. Both died. It was on the news about a week ago if I recall correctly.

The original photo didn't show how developed the other "head" is. The operation is on Friday.

Nothing But Net · 02-04-2004, 09:46 PM

Why are they even attempting this operation?

Haven't they heard that two heads are better than one?

Or does that only apply to blowjobs?

Jacque Strapp · 02-05-2004, 01:39 PM

I have read that when the kid is nursing, the mouth on the other head moves. Creepy.

The operation is over and the baby is doing very well. More to be found here.

"Is the head dead, yet?"

Since all is well with the survivor, we can start making jokes now, right?

"Did they have to use eightceps when you were born?"

From what I recall, if it's Chang and Eng (the original Siamese Twins) you're talking about, they had two of everything. Their wives were sisters.

The mind boggles...

Try to head off anything in poor taste.

The child has now died, so I suggest that you stop with the jokes and show a bit of respect.

I feel so bad. Rebeca is dead.

I prayed for her but she still died.

It's sad that she died...she just couldn't keep her head together.

Okay, here's what I read that was creepy - they needed to get the surgery done pretty fast because the other brain was growing faster then the one attached to the whole baby. I really hope neither child was very self aware (beyond the normal for a baby that is anyway).

Welcome to the Cellar Psybear. I was pretty shocked, went they jumped in at the end of the news to say she had died, after they had been saying how well she was doing. But as Gina (Welcome Gina) can explain, she's in heaven now, and doesn't need respect from mere mortals. All that's here, is the empty shipping container.
