Small Zoe and Oliia grew up together in the 29 weeks before to their public debut. They were forced to spend a month waiting even though they didn’t need to in order to prevent one twin from accidentally suffocating the other.
It took doctors 27 days to come to the devastating conclusion that Zoe and her sister were strong enough to be reunited, making the horrible moment when she yearned to hug her sister all the more heartbreaking.
“We had been waiting so long for the girls to meet that when the day finally came, we couldn’t believe it,” said Ann, 29, from As. After exactly 27 days, your first embrace went above and beyond what you had anticipated.
Zoe turned to face Oliia when she had me on top of her and cried out, leaving me to embrace her. As tears started to well up in my eyes, it was a moment I’ll never forget.
