The birth of Kendra and Malia Herrin, Jake and Erin’s daughters, in the closing months of 2002 triggered a spectrum of feelings. The conjoined twins’ birth brought the parents joy and appreciation, but they also worried about the future of their children.
Before their parents decided to split them up and let them live different lives, Kendra and Malia had lived together for four years.
Kendra and Malia had a special obstacle because they only had two legs between them, each of which was controlled by one twin. However, they mastered running and walking without trouble through persistence and adaptation.
A group of 31 doctors labored assiduously for more than a day in 2006 to successfully separate Kendra and Malia. As soon as word of this ground-breaking procedure spread, the twins were thrust into the public eye and became overnight sensations. Kendra and Malia were able to live individual lives after spending 14 years as conjoined twins.
It was undoubtedly difficult for Kendra and Malia to adjust to their newfound independence, but they displayed exceptional resiliency and eventually grew accustomed to their new way of life. The twins now frequently attend school, occasionally doing homework at home as needed. Kendra and Malia have demonstrated their artistic abilities in addition to their academic achievements; they both have a passion for painting and outstanding drawing talent.
