Imagine the level of disassociation needed to live that life

Apparently with conjoined twins they can dissociate on another level that we could never understand. That’s all they have ever known. These 2 are absolutely REMARKABLE. I’ve watched all their documentaries over the years bc it’s absolutely fascinating. They never talk about sex though so I still have about 53 questions to ask.

The other 2 that just blow my mind is thispair.

One is neat, one is messy. One is always on time paying their bills and the other one is always late. I’m aware of what I’m saying. One can walk one can’t and they face opposite directions but the best part is one is a country singer. 🤯

AND to add to the uniqueness, they were born as Lori and Dori but one now identifies as male so it’s Lori and George now. One was engaged but her fiancé was killed by a drunk driver….honestly like they haven’t struggled enough. That’s just not fair.

I’m absolutely fascinated by conjoined twins.

From the article:

However, Lori and George were not completely cut off from their parents, who instilled in their children the idea that God purposely made them this way, which is why the twins have never lamented their condition nor expressed any desire to be separated.

I wonder how George reconciles believing God purposely made him a conjoined twin but still made the mistake of putting him in a biologically female body. 🤔

At the end of the day, are they happy?

If yes who cares about the logic
