Kendra Deene and Maliyah Mae Herrin were born February 26, 2002 at the University of Utah Medical Center in Salt Lake City, Utah.  They were born 8 weeks premature at 32 weeks gestation.  They are former Ischiopagus / Omphalopagus Conjoined Twins, meaning that they were joined at the abdomen and the pelvis.  They shared several organs, mainly a kidney, liver, and large intestine.  They were successfully separated August 7, 2006. They are very healthy and happy little girls, each with her own distinct personality.  They are very smart and are learning new things every day.  Together they could scoot around, roll over, pull up to standing, and even do a summersault.  They are best friends and have such a close bond.  They are such wonderful miracles and they continue to bring joy to their family and friends everyday.  We love them so much.
