They are Siamese, they are joined by the head and it is impossible to separate them

The mother of the girls, who asked not to be identified, he discovered that he would have Siamese craniopagas while he was already in the delivery room of a medical center in Suriname, the old Dutch Guyana, reported the British site Daily mail.

After the birth, the family moved to the Netherlands to determine if the girls could be operated on As they share the artery that feeds the brain with blood, the option was ruled out immediately..

"When we were all born, they thought we were going to die, but here we are, we are 18 and we are firm on our four feet," said Nelly.

"They wanted a better life for them, obviously, it was not a good time when we lived in Suriname, people have moved away from our family because they thought that there might be some kind of voodooexplained Rosianne Kolestein, 24, the eldest sister of the Siamese.

Besides Rosianne, Neev and Nelly have a brother, Timothy, and another sister, Marione. "We did not expect that they would live up to the age of 10 years and now they are 18 years old and you have to think wow & # 39; "said the young woman.

To see each other, the twins use mirrors and look into each other's eyes. "Our bodies are separated but we are united by the head, people think we can read our thoughts, but this is not the case," said Neev.

"This means we can do each one his own," he said on the details of his independence.

The Siamese had to endure years of offensive comments, like when Someone in the street is taken to her mother because she has not "interrupted her pregnancy".

"My mother had to endure people telling him to keep them alive for their moneyIt was a lack of respect, "recalled Rosianne.

But since the girls are 16 years old, their family decided to support them in order to become independent and to have confidence in them. The diffusion of their story is only the first step.
