‘Miracle Baby Fighters’: Twins Diagnosed With Rare Condition in the Womb Now Home and Thriving
A set of premature twins didn’t meet outside the womb until they were 2 months old. However, together, they had already survived an in-utero surgery, a rare and dangerous condition, and a protracted stay in the NICU amid the COVID-19 pandemic.
Now 8 months old, both Pauly and Vinny Salmonese are thriving. Their parents, Dana and Joe, of Huntington, New York, couldn’t be prouder of their “miracle baby fighters.” Pauly Salmonese in the hospital. (Courtesy of Dana Salmonese)
