The Death of Hope and Faith

faith-and-hope.jpgThe youngest woman ever to give birth to conjoined twins has lost both of her little babies.  Laura Williams from England is only 18 years old. Her conjoined twin girls Faith and Hope were born November 26th of this year.   Born via c-section the girls were joined from their navels to their breastbone. While they had separate hearts they did share a liver.  On December 2nd they had surgery which lasted 11 hours  to separate them. Waiting until they were both healthier to have the separation surgery was not possible due to their declining conditions.  Hope passed away shortly after the surgery because her lungs were too weak.  Faith endured two more surgeries to improve circulation and to close her chest. Faith passed away Christmas afternoon.   The grief that Laura Williams is experiencing at the young age of 18 is unimaginable.  I have prayed for her and I sincerely hope that you do too.
