  • EXCLUSIVE: By Sherbien Dacalanio in Philippines A Filipino family is desperately trying to raise funds required for separation of their conjoined twins attached at the forehead despite the risk of them dying in the operation. Chiara and Charina, 7, from Roxas in Palawan, were born with craniopagus. The conjoined wins’ struggle starts with waking up and till the time they go to sleep. In between of everything, whatever daily chores everyone does is excruciating painful and difficult for them. From bathing, to eating, while going to school, they need to manage their heads that is stuck to each other sharing an artery. Sonia Nortega, 37, the mother of twins, says: “We conducted a series of medical procedure on the twins, such as MRI and CT Scan. Much to our dislike, the reports suggest that it will be a risky affair to separate Chiara and Charina. In the arterial studies there is clear arterial crossover and sharing between the twins. In addition the venous studies show a very robust outflow circulation in the larger venous vessels. There is also very poor central deep drainage in the veins.’ “But we have decided to go ahead with the process anyway. I am well aware that during the process we might end up losing one of the twins. If one of them gets cured and starts leading a normal life, I would know the other sister’s sacrifice was worth. I am positive and believe in the miracles of science. I wishes to send my daughters to better surgeons, who can handle the risk of this case and cure her daughters. My heart says that they both would survive the operation and would be able to lead a normal life,” the said 37-year-old mother of five. The Nortegas have three other children that were born normal without any complication and lead normal life. After the doctors told the family that the separation of the twins possible is but involves a risky operation, a local charity withdraw its earlier financial support. Now, the Nortegas are finding it difficult to raise f

  • EXCLUSIVE: Gracie Phillips wants to be known for more than just her famous last name. When she started modeling professionally two years ago, the California native insisted that casting agents not be told her father is Lou Diamond Phillips, the Golden Globe-nominated Filipino-American actor best known for his starring role in “La Bamba.” After making it on her own, the petite brunette is no longer shy about her family. “I just realized I was booking jobs consistently based on my own self rather than who my dad was,” she said at her Post photo shoot, where she was all smiles despite the frigid temps and a recent fever. “I’m very proud of my dad and who he is . . . Now I have no problem being attached to him.” ***NO NEW YORK DAILY NEWS, NO NEW YORK TIMES, NO NEWSDAY***. 13 Mar 2018 Pictured: Gracie Phillips.
