Saddest thing I've ever seen
I genuinely think this is one of the saddest things I've ever seen and I need to get it together because I have to go talk to someone in a couple of minutes about an article I'm writing.
This poor baby was supposed to be part of a set of twins, but one of the twins did not develop fully and was only a head. The second head was capable of smiling and blinking, but could not live on its own without the full twin. But, that breaks my heart because I have to believe that baby was capable of feeling and thinking and now her life is over, not that she really would have had much of a life. I know the separation was the right thing to do, but this just breaks my heart beyond belief. I do not envy those parents. How awful all the way around.
