Conjoined Twins Prove Life’s Crazier When You’re Stuck Together 24/7
Spinal Fusion for Balance
A new challenge arose for the Hensel twins when Brittany stopped growing at age 12, while Abby continued to gain height. This difference led to a noticeable imbalance that could have caused serious health issues for both sisters. To address this, their parents opted for a crucial spinal treatment for Abby, involving a fusion of her backbones to halt her growth.
This procedure aligned their spines, ensuring they could maintain balance and physical comfort in their shared upper body. The decision was a significant one, impacting their future well-being and marking another remarkable step in their journey to overcome the unique challenges of their connected lives.
