Premature Babies Born at 24 Weeks Could Have Been Legally Aborted, But They Beat the Odds to Survive

A British family is celebrating this spring because their twins who were born weighing a little more than 1 pound are finally home from the hospital.

Jo-Anne Collins and her partner, Paul Paraskeva, of Bristol, England told the Daily Mail that they struggled for 12 years to conceive a child. Then, last year, after several attempts with in vitro fertilization, Collins said she became pregnant with twin boys Frankie and Nico.

But their struggles were not over.
