WOW!... what if the twin lived? Would he call the boy Dad,Mom, or Bro? Either way it would be a great story for show and tell.

Apparently it isn't all that uncommon.

I think you're talking aboot that "trich" something... When a tumor has nails and teeth.
This is different because this boy had a siamese twin brother inside his stomach.

article mentions the tumor was feeding off the boy's blood supply. can you imagine, if one day the tumor grew arms and legs and wanted to come out of the boy's stomach? i can picture the scenes from Alien/Aliens movies.
