What a sweet story. Lovely girl. God bless her.
What a terrible and happy story!
Personally, I don’t find this a huge moral dilemma. The doctors were not trying to kill Rosie, they were trying to save both babies. Rosie was just in such bad shape she couldn’t survive apart from her sister.
It’s better to lose one life than two.
This is not like an abortion or a killing. One child had to die, or else they would both have died.
What I think might be difficult to live with is that the doctors had to make a choice, which of the twins to kill. It could have been the other way around. Best solution to that is to be grateful for the sister who gave her life for her, and to pray for her.
Siamese Twins prove the lie of "it's MUH body and I can do to it what I want". Separate hearts and and brains and all that.
I don't fault this girl for her sister's death or her parents' decision, more to the point of the issue of abortion in general.
The Hilton Sisters were permitted to get married and cast separate election ballots.
