Kendra Herrin and Maliyah Herrin were born on February 26, 2002 in Salt Lake City, Utah. They shared a bladder, one kidney, a large intestine, and a liver. Separating them was considered, but their parents, Erin and Jake, knew that separation would be extremely risky. Despite that risk, however, doctors separated the twins back in 2006. Since then, the twins have been the subject of a documentary, started their own YouTube channel, and gained attention across the United States.

When Erin Herrin was pregnant, some doctors even suggested aborting the twins, according to Ninja Journalist. One doctor told them the twins couldn’t survive on their own. He claimed they didn’t have the organs they needed to survive. However, the twins were born and grew.
