These Conjoined Twins Prove Two Heads Are Better Than One!
A Critical Turning Point
At age 12, the Hensel sisters faced their first major medical crisis. Up until then, they had been healthy, avoiding the complications that often come with conjoined twins. However, as they grew, the pressure from their fused rib cages began restricting their lung function, making it harder to breathe.
Their shared torso no longer had enough space for both sets of organs. Doctors performed a procedure to expand their rib cages and relieve the pressure on their lungs. This life-saving intervention allowed them to continue their active lifestyle without restrictions. After recovery, they were back to doing what they loved—living life to the fullest.
