The news says the conjoined twins born last week are being separated as I write. They brought the operation forward because of unspecified complications. Let's hope it goes well.

I expect many of you have heard by now. I just heard on the news that little Hope lost the battle during the night. Let's all pray for Faith.

Sad- but looks like the remmaining twin is likely to survive. After the death of Hope, Faith is all we have to cling to.

Clever Mr. Burke. Unfortunately cleverness is a bit inappropriate, considering.

It's very sad that Hope lost her battle for life. The parents are so young too and a long way from home. Lets hope that Faith grow's stronger and gets well soon.

I'm assuming this iss happening in England as it has not been reported here. It is such a sad thing when something like this happens but - no doubt due to a significant fault in myself -- I can't open the link to read the article....I just can't 'deal' with the abnormality. NOTE - I said this is a failing in me....

Faith is still fighting for her life, the hospital says she has a 50/50 chance. Go for it kid!
