Real guts

Recommended Posts

I read today that the adult conjoined twins who were being separated in Singapore died. That's sad, but somehow it's also one of the gutsiest things I've heard of. I heard some of the interviews, and read some transcripts. Intelligent, educated women, who simply wanted life on their terms.

Consider making a jump if you thought the chances were so poor of making it. They knew what they wanted from life, and did what they could to get it, even knowing it might kill them.

I have been following it closely. They were amazing women and I was heartbroken when I heard the news. I know one of the sisters wanted to be a journalist although was a law grad because that is what her sister wanted.......to go to law school. They are talking about it on Dateline now

Oh, geez:(. I had not heard the news. I've just been 'reveling' in the quiet here and haven't heard any news. Very sad, but as you said, they went for what they wanted to do!

They are in a better place now. And hopefully separated, though together



What a wonderfully poignant remark! Well said!
