Following surgery to separate week-old conjoined twins Faith Williams and Hope Williams doctors announced Hope did not survive the procedure, stating her lungs had been too small to support her breathing and circulation.
The surgery took place on Tuesday at London's Great Ormond Street Hospital and by that evening Hope past away. The parents of Hope, Laura and Aled Williams, were with their daughter when she died. Faith was placed in intensive care where she is said to have a 50 percent chance of survival.
It is believed Faith’s lungs had been supporting Hope and when she was cut off from that source she was unable to breathe on her own.
Born on Nov. 26, the two girls were joined at the chest to the lower part of their stomachs and while they each had a heart they shared a liver and intestines.
