About the film:
Connected follows the seemingly impossible separation of conjoined twins, Pedro and Augusto.
The 5-year-old boys came to Dayton Children’s from Guatemala in July 2021 joined at the top of the head with a 90 degree turn, classified as craniopagus O’Connell class III.
The condition is incredibly rare with an estimated 50 craniopagus twins born every year, with only an estimated 15 of those surviving more than a few months.
The documentary chronicles the two years that surgeons and staff spent preparing and executing the series of separation surgeries for this rare and complex condition.
The documentary was produced and directed by Flyback Productions, a Chicago-based production company.

The doctors’ medical drawings are fascinating. These surgeons are true super heroes.
Dayton Children's hospital team, you're working miracles. God be with you always 🙏 ❤️
There is nothing more exciting than watching a group of brilliant and talented surgeons brainstorming and coming up with an innovative plan to solve a problem.
Ce qu'il y de moins excitant,c'est de savoir qu'ils doutent,forcément,du resultat.Car,aucun cas ne ressemble aux autres....pourvu qu'il n'y ait pas de choix douloureux..!
The mother was really young and I think that she thought once the surgery was done.She was gonna have two average children with no deficits After seeing the the reality that the children have several disabilities. Now she couldn't handle it, she bailed and it's really heart breaking for the children. They had of told her the chance of this happening. She could at least visit them at the child care center But I hope that they find a good family to adopt them And that they do have a good life full of love happiness and good health
God bless this hospital and the teams of hard working and brilliant staff!
What an incredibly complex procedure! I can't fathom the amount of thinking, considerations, consultations, care coordination, etc. Planning it down to scrab colors of grey and blue, signifying the patients team members are responsible for. How many sleepless nights, just thinking if specific method or tool is the best choice. This blows my mind! My hat is off. Absolutely incredible!
I LOVE how throughout the documentary the importance of each and every member of the team was acknowledged! Together everyone achieves more!
When those few steps were taken during PT ..to see the progress with movement, speech...wow!
Thank you to all the providers involved in care of these boys! I wish these boys to continue with their progress, and hope to see some updates in the future.
As a surgical OR tech I wish they had not blurred the surgical site. It would have been most educational to see that. However, thank you for what you did reveal. An education in medicine and humanity.

Unglaublich großartige Leistungen all dieser beteiligten Menschen,Respekt und Anerkennung für dieses außergewöhnliche Team 👏
When that surgeon woke In the middle of the night with knowledge he didn’t know previously, that was the Devine speaking to him…this story made me cry. This mother was so so very right that God was working through these surgeons hands. God bless you all!!❤
No, you process stuff in your sleep. It's called dreaming
@@annnee6818true, but pls allow others the comfort of their beliefs. None of us know everything about how the world works.
الله لايعمل بين أيدي الجراحين. الله سبحانه وتعالى. ينزل رحمته على. المريض. اتمنى استعاب في التعبير
Where is next baby 😢
You guys were amazing, you did a great job 👍👍👍, God is with you
Give thanks to the Lord! He put these 2 little boys in the right hands! Such a great video and good example of how great Drs and Surgeons and all involved, truly are! You are a blessing to this world!! ❤️🙏
I think the poor mother had convinced herself that she was going to walk out with 2 perfect boys and the reality was a long road to the best life they were ever going to have .
Does she have other children waiting for her?
It was so inspiring Jehovah God was with them helping them to never give up on so sorry for the mother missing out on her wonderful boy's xx
Wait…did she really abandon her boys after all they had to go through?🙁🙁
@@gemini5513 I personally think they eould have been bettervif they had been in a home in usa be it adoption fostering special needs residential school whatever for great medical care education etc as it dosent look as if any extended family could care for them cery sad all round
@@margaretr5701 looked like she was pregnant.
This group of doctors and staff are amazing!!! The time, dedication and pure commitment and compassion for these little lives has given me so many spirit chills!!! This is the BEST video I’ve seen on TH-cam ever!!! Absolutely amazing!! ❤
I hope that the boys at least have some kind of relationship with their mother, and that they continue to have good quality of life. The doctors did intense and incredible work, and I don’t want to diminish their accomplishments. But I’ll admit, it was tough to see the boys level of intellectual function and interactivity before surgery versus after. Much has been lost in the process.
Its may not all be lost permanently. Their bodies & brains were still in shock. We also do not know they level of recovery their vessels & brains can reach. They are still so young & were developmentally delayed bc of being conjoined. Regeneration can take place until 18yrs of age. With good PT &OT, Speech & language skills & time, they could recover more skills.
I believe that it was Ben Carson who preformed the first conjoined surgery successfully ❤
Wow 6 minutes in and that’s sad to hear 😢
That was so awesome to watch!! Very talented team of surgeons and nurses and anesthesiologists and support staff!!
Yes❤
The poor mom and dad. Heartbreaking to go through all of this for your babys and then have to give them up because they were unable to care for them 😔💜🙏
I think they were expecting to have average healthy kids after the surgery. And when they didn't, they realized that they had disabilities.that were not going to go away they gave them up it's heartbreaking
@@jeanalzaidi908sad.
@@jeanalzaidi908 it’s very sad 😔 😢.
What a incredible story and that's so awesome to accomplish such a complex but rewarding surgery.
God Bless the Drs, APRNS, RNS, CRNAS and the remaining staff I did not mention. I am an RN, you all are angels of God. I can imagine the difficulties that went into the planning, preparing, and actual 3 days of surgery. I’m just sad these boys did not go home to their mom and I pray she does visit these precious little boys. ❤❤❤
I hope the mother has not abandoned them ! Surely not...😢
@@user-nm3yd9qf4x
@@user-nm3yd9qf4x: sadly it looks like she did.
Otherwise she would has come to the airport welcome her boys when they arrived in Guatemala after such a long time,
and/or be in this care facility to see them and the doctors and to visit their new home also!
That was incredible work to do for this doctors.Great specialist.They did it.And the boys were so strong.I hope for them that they will have a normal life.Please dear God take care of them,and the great medical team.
♥️Beautiful!
God continue to Heal and Bless these precious boys! Hats off to these amazing doctors and staff!
None of this would be possible without the amazing technology of MRI, and the three-dimensional imaging used to create real-life images of the boys’ brains.
They each cried for mom. Then both lost her. Sad
So very sad. Why couldn't she continue to visit at the care centre ?
😢😢😢😢
God bless every Doctor, and nurse right down to the cooks in the cafeteria to the laundry people doing the laundry, you are all heroes thank you all 🙏 God picked you all bless these boys.
Wow the 2 boys are so beautiful and full of life after their separation. Well done to the dedicated teams in separating the 2 boys. May God's glory and love shine eternally through these two young children. God bless everyone who made it possible to separate them. ❤ God bless you.
Appreciate the honorable mention for pharmacy ❤
These doctors healed my childhood dream of being one! They are amazing! 💜
Wow!! THANK YOU DOCORS! And everyone who helped with this ❤❤
I was living in Utah at the time Lisa and Elisa Hansen, (who were born conjoined at the head), from the time they were seperated, to now it's amazing how much seperation surgery has progressed. Both girls grew to adulthood but now both have passed away. Personally I feel that this way of doing the surgery bit by bit instead of all at once, is the best way of going about it.
Are you a surgeon?
God has to have given these Doctor's amazing brain's to operate like this. A definite miracle for these 2 baby boy's. The skills of the doctors is mind blowing. I pray that these 2 boy's will continue to improve with God's will.
Thank you for all the Doctor's, nurses and the expertise of everyone else.
GOD bless you all abundantly AMEN 🙏🏻✝️🫂
Love ❤ and blessings from Australia.
A beautiful story of faith, courage and brilliant people!
I'm always feel sad and very sensitive about children especially like the one of Augusto and Pedro. Wish I could cuddle them in my arms
Wow
The surgeons and their staff are absolutely awesome and incredibly ❤
I am amazed and excited at the skill and advances available with all the high tech equipment. I so appreciate these loving, caring very brilliant physicians and nurses. I hope these boys will continue to progress. I think the Dr. who stated they will always be a part of his life- really is sincere. ❤😊
Beautiful story, beautiful outcome. Thank heavens for talented, caring medical staff.❤❤❤
American medical professionals & latest technology coupled with brilliant minds made the separation possible. I am in awe of the doctors & their support staff.
This story is remarkable. My tears wont stop. I pray that these children have a good life. God bless the doctors, nurses, the people who will raise the boys and everyone who helped. Love to all of you
Wow!! All those people in the operating theatre all need medals for their dedication. It's amazing what people can do when they work as a team 😊
Amazing living seperation, but i find it difficult that their mother isnt there & she received no help to stay in their lives. You said they would be cared for & loved. They already were. This unfortunately just reminds me of the quintuplet girls taken from their family & brought up in a medical facility & put on display for years.
Is there video on the story of the quintuplets?
TH-cam. Miracle babies. The story of the Dionne quintuplets. I can't seem to link it here
Kudo's to every one of you that had a part in this... I would love to see them in the years ahead...
God bless those beautiful children and the great doctors that gave them a life apart
Was für eine wahnsinnige Leistung! ❤❤❤
What an incredible job the team of surgeons , anesthesiologists, surgical team, the ICU team, neurologists, EEG technicians, the circulating nurses, the PTs, the OTs, and everyone involved with the successful separation of the two lovely boys. And I thank & praise the Lord Jesus for directing them & give the expertise of their minds & hands. 🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️
The skills that these doctors have is mind blowing - the absolute peak of human skill and ingenuity - im in awe
The smile at the end is just heartwarming ❤❤❤
I thought it was fantastic that in the briefing the surgeon said this is anything that concerns you during this never done surgery please please speak up, that is the attitude of a fantastic surgeon who trusts his team and I bet he's a humble man that should be the mottos of all surgeons doctors nurses everyone but sadly its proberly not often like that
I feel like this was a key part of the success. Definitely need to be a team! No place for ego or top down leadership. Totally agree with you!
When I almost died of Covid in 2020, I gave credit to God, prayers from my family and friends-including those at my Church and the priest there-and the EMTs and hospital staff. All had a part!
It sounds like she had emotionally checked out from them before the surgery, possibly not expecting them to survive and trying to psychologically prepare herself. You don’t see her at their bedside, hanging over the bed, touching them. She keeps her distance.
Wait, so the mom just abandoned her children after they were separated that’s really sad 51:03
Thank you for your knowledge and perseverance to give these children a brighter future ahead of them . Who knows they may follow your footsteps to become surgeons someday to help others.
Great Job team. God given wisdom to the doctors. Keep Going On.
These nurses and doctors are the biggest gift of GOD! Thank you to all the medical team who saved these wonderful kids lives. We love you all for doing what you guys do best.
Thank you for all team Work I proud of you. ❤
These surgeons are incredible

@@user-uh3jk4vp6x what?????
God Bless the Doctor’s and the team, and the boys! Truly amazing !
God Bless this amazing team of surgeons, Doctors all involved in this complex surgery and God Bless these boys with a full recovery and amazing new lease on life!!!
I wish they would have stayed in the US, Mom was likely overwhelmed knowing that financially she would never be able to give them the proper care.
These doctors are amazing. The precision they have and they work so great with each other. God Bless them. The whole staff and nurses and anesthesiologist are all amazing as well. God Bless them as well. Technology has come a very long way, but thank God for it.
Watching this kind of video makes so happy to see that there are people who have passion for their work and to help others.❤❤❤❤
Amazing, brilliant and wonderful people❤💐 great job!
Amazing scientific and technological efforts and success.
Wow! Praise the Lord for doctors and medical staff who are so dedicated to their patients’ health and wellbeing, with so much love and compassion. It’s wonderful!😊
Честь и хвала врачам !
Точно
Ce sont des héros tt court 👏👏👏👏👏👏
So sad at the end the mom gave them up😢😢😢
She never seemed close, didn’t touch them, wasn’t at bedside.
What? Gave them up? I'm here
Some cultures don't have the education, money, or resources to take care of their special babies. Often, they're told-by family members-to give them up and often to die. Many, like children who were left physically disabled during Chernobyl were left behind in orphanages. Children who were mentally retarded were also left behind in institution, not just here in the USA, but in Europe too. A German dr. told my parents to leave me behind in such a place as I would never get any better. My parents said "no" as I had Hypothyroidism and an American dr. told my parents to give me thyroid for my Cretinism and took me home to Ga. Despite my ADDHA, I caught up and attended college, then graduated from GSU in 1987 with a BA in Art. Getting a job was harder as too many employers in Ga. have the old "No Disabled Apply. Don't Even Try" attitude as they refuse to believe I even graduated, much less attended, college-but I did volunteer and work before retirement.
I feel this is over simplified. She went through all that for them and raised them until that point, but this is a taxing procedure, and now the boys need care that she literally can not provide the high level of. She made a decision for them to have the best life they could and that's what a true hero does. Sad would be her letting them die, thinking she could do it herself
Great video.
This amazing inspiring accomplishment - highlights the evolved Superior Humanitarians that are amongst us now in this advanced, amazing new science based era - Their dedication, compassion and commitment is beyond awe inspiring.
And at the same time we see daily on our screens the in-discriminating degradation, maiming and killing of innocent people by the lesser human beings amongst us - who have not yet evolved from the old barbaric primal responses - who use violence to gain power, dominance over others!!
And those who are creating for profit the horrendous killing machines etc that do the killing and horrific maiming - for profit!!
We have to wonder how these lesser groups feel when they also view the devastation and human suffering of men , women, and innocent children while sitting in the comfort of their own homes chest thumping and counting their 'financial profits'.
How are the two boys doing from Guatemala? Are they doing good? I would like to help the two boys.
I am in awe of this team of Drs Aneathetists and Nurses,you truly are very special people I have followed this case great interest
I an RGN from the 🇬🇧 watching you all brainstorm and reaching a decision that you are agreed on,and the way the whole team have jelled
Is amazing,it's made me want to go back to Nursing again.
Kudos to all the medical teams
Congratulations all those Doctors and all nurses and staff who did this surgery possibly God bless you all and protect your and all your family ❤❤❤
WOW 😮 It’s amazing what all those Doctors and specialists accomplished! I pray those boys will continue to thrive and develop and that they have a good quality life 🙏 I’m not really understanding why Mom had to give them up? At first I thought she just gave them up to the hospital because she couldn’t care for both at that time but would take them back once all the surgeries were done. But it seems that she gave them up completely and isn’t even involved in their lives at all. I wish I knew the truth about mom. May God bless these two children now and forever with peace love and happiness 🙏
Don't talk about the mom like that... she did not give them up!!! It never said that
Your an internet troll looking for attention
Dad didn’t appear to be around at that point but I saw him in an earlier video. The kids had never left the hospital after birth. They were always shown with nurses taking care of them and even the surgeon says they would have just laid in a hospital bed for the rest of their life. It’s almost impossible for a poor person to care for special needs kids on their own. They only get the care they need if the state takes over. Doesn’t mean that mom is not visiting all she can. She stayed with them until they were over all their major surgeries. She can’t not work and also pay for all the medical care they need. They might need life long care depending on how bad the neurological damage is. They were probably destined to live in that home even if they didn’t have surgery. Now their quality of life will be much better. They can feel happiness, be part of family with lots of other kids, get an education and live their best lives.
Maybe the mom feels inadequate to care for them ? I hope she reunites with them...how can we know ! ? 😢
@@cortlynnelliott1797 it seems as though she has ! No mention of her seeing them upon their return to Guatemala ! She was not seen. I hope she will reunite them in due time.
Also, prayers go out to these boys and their mother and their whole family.
So…. If the baby is on “maternal bypass”, does the baby receive medication for pain, as they are operated on? I’m very curious about this method.
That's very sad that their Mom didn't keep them..
Thanks for the Doctor dedication for this operation!Yahauh bless 🙏❤️👍🇵🇭
Have you seen the movie (2009) “Gifted Hands” ? It’s the Ben Carson story.
Thank you
I hope the mother is visiting them, of course there is no way she could've taken care of them by herself.
About 3 years ago I had head and throat cancer caused by HPV virus I had to get a lot of work done with my esophagus and my feeding tube and I did not remember the operations were so quick that I didn't believe I was even knocked out I was at a Cancer Center for 15 days in critical condition from an infection and I'll never forget how wonderful and how great every doctor and all of the Staff treated me so very good at this Cancer Center it was the most incredible experience I ever had in all my life. they saved me from passing. And I love all my doctors. They told 😮me from day one if I go through this treatment one of the hardest 14weeks of radiation and 14 kemo treatments They can stop it. Even when I was in critical condition I did not miss one treatment coming up next month on 3 years in remission
AMAZING!!!
Wow the mom just gave them up so sad
God bless this hospital and everyone involved in patient care😊
God bless the doctors and nurses, great team. God bless the boys and mother!
Amazing video 😮😮😮😊😊😊❤❤❤
Just an absolutely amazing film. The dedication & skill & commitment of that medical team transcends words...so I'm obviously speechless. I'll never forget this....
What beautiful children. I hope they are still doing well.
Absolutely incredible ❤❤❤
Long haul great results kudos to all!
