The journey of conjoined twins Nima and Dawa | Australian Story

It took an army of Australians to separate conjoined twins Nima and Dawa. Joined at the chest and abdomen, the Bhutanese twins required separation surgery to ensure a healthy future. But with the medical system still developing in Bhutan, they turned to Australian medical experts for help. Now the toddlers are reunited with their whole family in a spectacular Himalayan homecoming.
