MELBOURNE, Australia -- The mother of recently separated conjoined Bangladeshi twins does not want custody of the daughters she gave up for adoption and wants them to have new lives in Australia, newspapers reported today.
The twins, who turn 3 next month, had been joined at the top of their heads and shared brain tissue and blood vessels. They were separated Tuesday after 25 hours of delicate surgery and then underwent an additional six hours of reconstructive work. Twin Trishna awoke from a medically induced coma Thursday; Krishna was still slowly being brought out of her coma.
