Doc,
How come you don't see Siamese twins
anymore? Aren't they being born these
days?
Joseph Thomas Jacob
Dear JTJ,
Of course they're still being born.
But they're being divided. Some are joined at
the top of the head, or the abdomen, the
chest, and they often share organs or limbs.
Most of them are born dead or they die
shortly afterward. These days, the doctors
always opt for trying to save one of them.
You might want to check your pals for
telltale scars. At one time there may have
been two.
Love,
Doctor Mueller
