  • From the moment they were born, twins Jadon and Anias McDonald never spent a moment apart as the boys were born conjoined at the head. At 13 months old, they were miraculously separated. The McDonald Family share an update on their incredible journey of their formerly conjoined twins. Plus, Kellie and Ben have a special surprise in store for the whole family!
    Pickler & Ben is an hour-long, multi-segmented lifestyle talk show filmed in Nashville and hosted by country star Kellie Pickler - known for her quick-wit and bubbly personality - and journalist Ben Aaron, a funny, curious, and good-natured New Yorker.

    The mom was on the verge of tears from the beginning of the segment. Clearly these are profoundly disabled kids. Especially the child on her lap. She said elsewhere that he has constant seizures. I don't think they expected it to be like this.
    But I think these parents know now that life is always going to be a major struggle for them and their twins.
    Hopefully they can progress far. It's amazing that they survived this far.

    • @torimccool4413
      @torimccool4413 5 лет назад +13

      Well of course they have some disabilities. They were aware of the risks. They knew that they were going to have them. They knew that one was probably going to be a little worse. Especially the one in her lap( Anais) his blood pressure and heart rate dropped so much from the surgery. He had to be put on meds to help. They will progress. It will take time.

      @@Rachel_Jayne exactly. IF they did not choose to try and separate the boys, there was a 90% chance they BOTH would have died before age 2; I do not see profoundly disabled children, I see children with a life ahead of them that they would not have had otherwise, if not for the surgery. Will Anais grow up to be a brain surgeon? Probably not, but then most people don't do brain surgery anyway. They will be perfectly perfect however they are. And alive!

    • @tamaraj4200
      @tamaraj4200 4 года назад +4

      Anytime you separate twins who are attached at the brain this is what to expect. Its great they both survived but Anias will never be 100% independent. Though being that they are young there is a good chance the other will be able to get a job one day. Though only time will tell.

    It mustve been a very, very difficult decision to have to make.

Unfortunately brain damage was part of it and it seems that one boy succumbed to a bit more than the other.

      You're vile. Leave your negative commentary out of this. Its disgusting that people like you will bring your prejudices and racism onto a person who means good and, who is giving a blessing to a family who have been through so many difficulties.
      I dont see you wishing the family well. You are only interested in showing how small minded and clearly unintelligent you are.
      Allah just means god/the divine/something bigger than us, in another language other than English.
      It doesn't matter which language a blessing is given in. Or religion for that matter. Its the blessing and intention which counts.
      Just because this blessing was given in Arabic doesn't mean, that @Ma Lo is Muslim. There are lots of Arabic speaking Christians too. Not that one is better or lesser than the other. Christianity and Islam come from one and the same religious root. Educate yourself, bigot.
      I hope these boys live a long and prosperous life.
      Blessed be them and their loved ones.
