Conjoined twins have gotten the best present for their first birthday, the gift of life.
Little Erin and Abby Delaney, who are turning one-year-old in July, were successfully separated in an 11-hour surgery. The girls were joined at the top of their heads, a condition called craniopagus. It is the rarest type of conjoined twins.
Erin and Abby, who are from North Carolina, were in excellent care. Their surgery took place on June 7 at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, which has done 23 separations.
