Extraordinary conjoined twins Abby and Brittany are making major headway in their lives as they enter their twenties. They have learned to tolerate one another—working together as two individuals but as one body. They share the same world spending all their days together—living a unique life as conjoined twins.

Born on March 7, 1990, Abigail and Brittany Hensel are conjoined twins with a medical condition called dicephalic parapagus. They are fused together at the torso and share one body. At birth, doctors told their parents they wouldn’t live for more than a few hours—miraculously they are now full-grown adults today.
