Despite doctors’ warnings about the challenges of her pregnancy and predictions that her conjoined twins might not survive beyond their first day, one mother refused to give up. Ten years later, her daughters have shown the world that life can hold extraordinary surprises.
Felicia and Brendan Hogans were overjoyed when they learned that Felicia was expecting twins, until doctors told them that the babies were conjoined at the head. Believing their future would be extremely uncertain, doctors advised the Hogans family to consider ending the pregnancy. But the courageous mother made it clear that walking away from her babies was not an option for her.
Then, when Tatiana and Krista arrived, Felicia and Brendan were once again asked to prepare for the most difficult outcome, as doctors believed their daughters might not live beyond their first 24 hours. Yet, against all expectations, the twins continued to grow with remarkable strength. Today, the girls are 10 years old and enjoy life alongside other children their age, living with their parents and siblings Rosa, 13, Christopher, 11, and Shayleigh, 7, in Vernon, British Columbia, Canada.
