In the hot heart of Brazil, in the state of Goiás, two baby girls were born — Kiraz and Aruna. Their birth was both a miracle and a challenge.
The sisters were conjoined twins, joined at the chest. Their bodies were closely intertwined: a shared stomach, fused pelvic bones, and only three legs between them.
For the doctors, this was one of the toughest challenges in recent years.
From day one, the medical team knew: for the girls to live full lives, they had to be separated. But the cost was high — the risk immense, and the preparation required time, precision, and almost superhuman effort.
Months of consultations, simulations, and meetings followed. Surgeons from across the country joined together as one team to attempt the unimaginable.
On the day of the operation, the operating room resembled an ant colony. 60 specialists — anesthesiologists, cardiac surgeons, orthopedists, pediatric surgeons, nurses — worked together as one unit.
Teams of 16 rotated every four hours to maintain focus. The operation lasted 15 hours.
When the words finally came: “They are separated,” silence filled the room.
Today, Kiraz and Aruna are in the intensive care unit. Their bodies are still weak, and a long rehabilitation lies ahead, but the hardest part is over. They no longer share one body, but they will forever be united by something greater — their story, love, and courage.
