The chances of the twins Adiah and Adrial surviving were very slim. They were hospitalized for six months until discharged.

A pair of twins, Adiah and Adrial, won a title in the Guinness World Records as the most premature in the world. They were born at 22 weeks at Mount Sinai Hospital in Toronto, Canada, weighing a total of 750 grams.

According to the doctors, if Adiah and Adrial had been born a few hours earlier, measures to save their lives would not even have been attempted. Most hospitals do not attempt to save newborns under 26 weeks.

The twins’ mother, Shakina Rajendram, gave birth at 21 weeks and five days. She felt contractions, bleeding and extreme pain. When she arrived at the hospital, she was told that the babies had no chance of survival.

However, after an ultrasound confirmed they were both alive and their hearts were beating hard, the parents sought help from doctors, who transferred her to Mount Sinai Hospital.

Even with the contractions, Shakina was instructed to “hold on” to the two until they completed 22 weeks. On March 4, 2022, Adiah and Adrial were born, weighing 330 grams and 420 grams respectively.

Shortly after giving birth, the two were diagnosed with cerebral hemorrhages. In addition, Adrial also suffered from kidney and lung problems and a generalized infection. They spent six months in the hospital under the care of medical staff until they were discharged.

Shakina and her husband, who had already lost a baby in a previous pregnancy, remember that they almost saw their children die before their eyes.

“In the midst of this whole scenario, we were told that the chances of survival are next to zero and the likelihood of them having a disability is very high, we were just hanging on to our hope and our faith, trusting in God “, she says, in the book of records. interview.

Fortunately, today the twins are doing well, healthy and living alongside the family.
