Medicine is good, but GOD IS GREAT
This statement is useless, God created medicine, there is no need to get religious about it. Appreciate the effort of the doctors and move on.

Cojoined twins were to have repeatedly survived an intense operation lasting 27 hours to separate them, Newspremises gathered.

The 9-month-old adorable sisters, identified as Elizabeth and Mary, joined at the hip left Cameroon for Turkey for the operation joined together but have now been separated seven months later. THANK YOU DOCTORS FOR THIS FEAT.

The girls' mother has praised the "extraordinary" medical team in Istanbul, Turkey's capital, who carefully planned the operation on 3D models before getting to work on the girls.

Their parent alleged that, the girls who came out the womb attached were living in pain which led to them seeking medical help.

But after seven months of planning and a final 27-hour operation to separate the conjoined twins, both girls have been discharged from the hospital in Istanbul.


The twins' father identified as Richard Akwe said:

"We were very saddened by the thought of our babies not being able to move around freely and that they were hurting.

We were also saddened by the crying of our little girls when they were hungry while my wife tried to breastfeed them one by one, but they were a gift to us and we are dedicated to taking care of them in the best way possible."

The girls’ mother Anne Caroline Akwe told a news conference: "I was very very happy, for seeing Elizabeth and Mary being separated and well without not any complications.

"Despite the many difficulties, I breastfed my babies for a year while they were conjoined.

"We never lost hope that they would be separated and live in good health. And that dream came true with the extraordinary effort and success of the Turkish doctors.

After the 27-hour operation, neurosurgeon Dr Memet Ozek said:

"The separation of the lower part of the spinal cord was a problem in the eight-and-a-half-hour separation process. Why was it a problem?

"Because it involved four important functions: the movement of their feet, their control of the urinary tract, being able to control defecation, and to prevent a problem in their future sex life.

"Each one had its own unique set of problems. After surgery, the aim is to keep them protected.”

So, who crated the team of surgeons and gave them the knowledge? I guess they also evolved through the theory of evolution, loolz. I'm still waiting to see human evolve into angels or an ape change to man in this generation cos evolution is supposed to be a continuous process grin

Good news coming from Turkey.

Unlike my Dear country,
where killings, banditry, corruption, embezzlement, looting, arm robbery, kidnapping, thuggery agberoeism, are the only news you hear.

No common News of Hope.
What a country.
Re: Turkey: Conjoined Twin Babies Successfully Separated After 27-Hour Operation by Nobody: 11:48am On Nov 03, 2021
If the parents are Nigerians they would be going to one church or the other for prophets to seperate the twins as if it is not God that gave humans intelligence like those surgeons to seperate the twins.

what a miraculous God that we have.

Lol, funny how things like this are never solved or done with prayers, one has to do surgery, even though you folks claim that faith move mountains.
