Conjoined twins thriving after surgery to separate them

Conjoined twins from Mooresville are thriving nearly five months after a long surgery to separate them.

Erin and Abby DeLaney, 15-month-old girls, were attached at the top of their heads.

Their surgery, which was on June 6, took 11 hours, but it was a success. They were recently discharged from the hospital.

The family said it is grateful to the team at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia.
