Siamese twins joined at the head set to undergo difficult separation surgery

Siamese twins joined at the head are set to undergo what the doctors have tagged a difficult surgery to separate them.

 

The twin girls Safa and Marva, were born  at a hospital in Peshawar in Pakistan in January this year, 10 days after their father died by Bibi their 35 year old mother of 5.

Though  Dr Shahzad Akbar, medical director of the hospital where the twins were born said: "The twins were fused at the head but scans showed that they have separate brains. So we are hopeful that a surgery can work out" he added that surgery was a complicated one.

The girls' uncle Muhammad Sadaqat, expressing his confusion over the doctor's mixed report said: "We don't know what to do. The doctors first said they will go for the surgery but now they are telling us this is going to be difficult." 

"He husband died just days before the girls were both. We are worried for the future of the family now. We are praying for God to show mercy and make a miracle happen," added Sadaqat
