The twins, Nima and Dawa Pelden have been discharged from the Royal Children’s Hospital (RCH) in Melbourne Australia today, more than two weeks after their life-changing surgery.

The 15-month-old girls who were born joined at the torso and shared a liver were separated in a six-hour surgery by a team of 25 people on 9th of this month.

The girls along with their mother will stay in the Children First Foundation’s Kilmore retreat to continue recovering before coming back to Bhutan.

The Head of Paediatric Surgery at RCH, Dr Joe Crameri told the local news reporters that the twins have made an excellent recovery and that they are now starting to act independently and move around.

“We have watched over this journey who started off really attached and bonded to one another but ultimately frustrated with one other. We saw them become incredibly anxious after the separation when they knew the other twin wasn’t immediately in front of them. But ultimately, over the last couple of weeks, we have seen them gain confidence, independence and  a lot of strength.”

He said the two girls need the stimulation of other children being around to challenge them, to give them an interest which will do wonders for the girls.  He also added the girls will have one more wound check and review.

Although the girls are recovering well, Dr Crameri said it is not known when the girls can go back to Bhutan.
