The Siamese twins have two spines, joined at the pelvis, two hearts and stomachs, three kidneys, two gall bladders and four lungs, as reported by the Sun. However, they are 'dicephalus' with one liver, ribcage, a nervous system and all organs below the waist including intestines, bladder and reproductive organs.

The doctors had warned their parents way back in March 7, 1990. But the couple Patty and Mike, went on with the birth and today they lead a happy life.

The life of the twins does not deprive them of any opportunities, as they play the piano, swim, ride a bike and engage in sport activities while each twin controls one side of the body. They have also learned driving with each sister using one arm to take control behind the wheel.

Abigail and Brittany are special, as they are one of the only four sets of dicephalus twins ever to make it to teenage years. However, the doctors still fear that they might face organ failure or defects.

This prediction has not lowered the sister's zeal to live as they also wish to get married someday. AGENCIES
