Doctors at the coast general hospital in Mombasa were working the extra mile to keep alive two conjoined twins who were born sharing a liver. The baby boys who were delivered through ceasarian section on Thursday morning were due to be transferred to Nairobi for specialized surgery at the Kenyatta National Hospital today but the exercise was called off after the hospital said its facilities were currently occupied forcing AMREF's flying doctors service to call off the evacuation.

The Kenyatta National Hospital administration has however assured that the conjoined twins will be admitted as soon as the hospital finds a ventilator which is key in keeping the babies alive.
