A 26-year-old mother from Augusta, Brittany Crafton gave birth to conjoined twins by C-section that she called Chance and Chandler. Soon after birth, the infants were reportedly in a critical condition until Georgia Regents Medical Center announced in a press release informing the media about the babies' condition. The new born shared a heart and liver and died on Wednesday after battling their tough medical complications. Bernice Crafton, Brittany's mother said, "We just thank God for all of this because we know all of this is His purpose and His will". While the Crafton family is grateful for all the support and love that is being showered in their tough times, they are requesting the public to give them some privacy to grieve the loss. However, the community's support is unshakeable as they take it to Facebook and other social media sites with hashtags, #2Smiles1Heart, as reported by WSAV.

Dr. Paul Browne of Maternal-Fetal Medicine at Georgia Regents University and Health System said in a press release, "What makes this case special is that the heart the twins share is quite normal and has been functioning very well for them. So, we believe it will continue to function well after the delivery," reports Fox 5 Atlanta.
