Ooh yes have just seen, yes very sad, especially as parents kep saying they'd be fine as the liver regenerates so looking more hopeful at seperating them

[Bbbananas]

Aah really? Bless her little heart, I thought the odds on them both surviving were pretty good.

[smudge]

That's ok 4get, just thought you'd like to read some of the posts on there too, albeit very sad.

[4getmenot]

yes me too, but I think they had complications yesterday with one getting a weak heart

[andy-hughes]

Such a shame.

It's thanks to the miracles of modern medicine that such a proceedure could even be contemplated - such a pity it was not successful for the little souls.

[smudge]

You can't imagine what it was like for people hundreds of years ago, without the medical procedures & medicine we have today. Doesn't bear thinking about....

[4getmenot]

I guess all them years ago they would even manage to get to the stage of being born that often

Just heard it on the radio, poor little mite, very sad.

Aww. It must be heartbreaking for the parents.
