Kendra and Malia were born to Jake and Erin Herrin in February 2002. There were mixed reactions to their birth: They were twin Siamese babies.
The new parents were overjoyed to join the family but immediately worried about what would happen to them. Kendra and Malia lived together until Malia was 4 years old.
However, their parents quickly made the firm decision to separate the twins, giving each child the chance to be on their own.
Malia and Kendra only had two legs, and they could only control one of them. However, the girls were able to move and play as soon as they learned how to work together.
The Siamese twins were separated in 2006 by a 31-person team of specialists.
They took more than a day to complete, and the actual event was extensively covered in the media and on television, making Kendra and Malia into little celebrities.
When the girls were four years old, they were split up. That was the beginning of their individual independence.
They were forced to adjust to a new way of life, but they did so quickly. The sisters started going to school after just three years, sometimes alternating with homeschooling.
The sisters honed their creative abilities. They could sing their favorite song and draw for hours in their room.
By personal example, Kendra and Malia have always demonstrated to their peers that there is no such thing as a hopeless situation.
Because of this, they were regarded as the school’s heroes, and their classmates frequently attempted to assist them in any way they could.
The girls are now twenty years old. Malia and Kendra now have full lives. Even though they can be far apart, they still prefer to be around each other everywhere.
The girls are proficient drivers now that they have obtained their driving licenses. The sisters share interesting events from their lives on their YouTube channel and social media pages.
Tens of thousands of people follow the twins. The mother of Siamese twins Kelly and Carter is a friend of the Herrin sisters.
They provide her with sound advice and provide her daughters with every possible support because they have a lot of life experience in the same situation.
