On 2 December 2009 two very special baby boys were born in a Great Ormond Street hospital in London. Joined from chest to pelvis, the conjoined twins Hassan and Hussein Benhaffaf’s heart-warming and remarkable fight for life against all odds earned them the title “The Little Fighters”. Written from the heart by their mother Angie, this inspirational book takes you on a miraculous journey from the life-changing moment she discovered her babies were joined to the agony of their separation surgery.
From conception to separation and beyond this is a gripping tale of a mother who risked everything so that her boys could have a chance at life. Featuring personal family photos, Little Fighters is a story of courage under fire, hope and unconditional love.
This story has struck a chord with every parent who knows that they would stop at nothing to do the best you can for their children. Angie and Azzedine have done this and lots more and captured the hearts of a whole nation in the process.
This revised edition carries the story beyond the twins’ second birthday and the fitting of their first prosthetic limbs. Hassan and Hussein, the miracle twins, are walking!
