A truly special connection

On March 7th, 1990, in Carver County, Minnesota, a remarkable event took place. Abby and Brittany Hensel came into the world, and from the very beginning, something incredibly rare was discovered about them. The doctors found that they were attached to each other in a way that is almost unheard of. They’re called dicephalic parapagus twins, and this means that they share one body.

Isn’t that amazing? Just think about it – instead of having separate bodies like most people, Abby and Brittany have one body that they both share. It’s like they’re forever side by side, facing the world together. They have a bond unlike anything we’ve ever seen before.
