Form what I understand, twinning in general is not particularly rare, but what usually happens is that one of the twins is absorbed by the other. So many people posting here right now may have been twins as one point. Of course, having the twin in a 'parasitic' form is very unusual.

I'm with you, Dust. I REALLY didn't need to see that right before dinner. Not that anything's wrong, but it is different.

The meatloaf should be just as good in 20 minutes.

An extra pair of arms might come in handy.

Absolutely amazing!

The speaker (Doctor) said they planned for a month prior to the surgery.

Can you imagine the memories of the little girl when she is 20?
