Mayo Docs Separate Conjoined Twin Girls

QUOTE
ROCHESTER, Minn. - Twin girls Abbigail and Isabelle Carlsen, joined at the chest since their birth five months ago, were separated Friday by a team of doctors at the Mayo Clinic.

The last tissue connecting the girls was cut at 4:28 p.m., "for the first time, completely separating the two young twins," said Mayo Clinic spokesman Lee Aase.

I live in Rochester, so this has been all over the news for the last week or so. Yesterday, a special church service was held for the 30 or so surgeons and nurses that were going to be involved in the procedure today. The family is from North Dakota, and things seem to be progressing very well. The doctors had given this a 90-95% success rate going into the surgery. I wish the family the best during this anxious time.
