craniopagus twins Tatiana and Krista Hogan

Conjoined twins Tatiana and Krista Hogan, age ten, at their home with their mother Felicia Hogan, left, and grandparents Doug and Louise McKay. The twin's brains are joined with a neural bridge between the thalami, the sensory processing hubs of their brains, which allows them to see through the eyes of the other and have shared physical sensations. Neurologists have been testing the twins in hopes of better understanding the brain. But the family is more concerned about how the girls will fit in and how to pay for expensive medical bills.
