You'd clean up on Blockbusters with 2 heads.

I'd say the chances of the poor thing staying alive is slim.

why is it that said part of the world manages to create these deformities but westerners rarely see such a thing?

I heard my uncle talking about this before. There was a programme on the discovery apparently that was all about this kid with the heads. It shared one body. I think it did survive though. Hopefully this kid does.

there is just something so wrong about showcasing a poor child like that on tv

Lol Four-Eyes! Damn, heads are heavy, though. That's a lot of extra weight to be carrying.
Yes, Oprah Winfrey is an abomination. So does the second head have a brain? Or could one be transplanted in there!?

Terry

i volunteer mine.
i will then proceed to take over the body completely and hit the freak show circuit. (oprah, springer, montel etc.)

You've never heard of siamese twins then?

that did actually make me laugh.

i'm surprised nobody else spotted that.

I know it's probably the right term, but 'parasitic head'... makes me think of aliens.

Reminds me of the Richard E Grant film How to Get Ahead in Advertising

Saw a program on siameese twins a while back. They did refer to it as two people sharing a body though. Is this the same thing?

Terry

of course.
there is only one body.

Lust4Life

Poor Thing! can you imagine if she survives?
She'll surely be a spinster! Most men don't know how to work around a woman with ONE brain!:p

And I'm with Monkeyfudge. What? No pics?

What a handicap.

Statistically there is a higher incidence of siamese twinning in south asia, same for identical twinning. Dont know why, something to do with population genetics.

what act of bravery did they do?

i actually saw a program on the discovery program about them two. And for the disability they have ( if you can call it that ) they seem like 2 lovely girls, their mother is a complete **** though.

Depends what you mean by a handicap, things like marriage, having children, having privacy, are basically out the window. I certainly wouldnt fancy it.
Those two girls are amazing though, they do seem like any other happy and normal children.

One of the references in that article reminded me of a TV documentary on RTE (?) recently, about 2 Irish Siamese twins about twenty years ago, who were seperated in the first 2 years of life, although unfortunately one of them died. It was very sad.

They've undergone extensive surgeries, including surgery to expand the thorax, and have not shyed away from taking on their childhood like normal children, they have appeared TV and in the media, dispelling any tabboo or myths about their condition. They have also decided themselves to carry on as Siamese twins despite the option of seperation being there... did you read it?
