Thoracocephalopagus and Heteropagus Conjoined Twins

The parents were expecting triplets, the one baby came out normal and survived while the other "twins" came out like this

The conjoined twins were thoracocephalopagus and heteropagus (asymmetrical), with two hearts in a shared thorax, a meningocele, and an omphalocele.

These were actually part of triplets, the 1 came out normally, but the other two were this mess of twins

well yeah, its your kid. even if it is all...messed up looking.
if it was still alive though I'm thinking they'd take it straight to ICU. I'm guessing since the gut or whatever is hanging out, its very vulnerable to infection.
