Original Toronto Star caption: Heather and Kristen; the first set of Siamese twins in Canada to be successfully separated and survive; celebrated their first birthday in Metro this month. Their parents; who wish to remain anonymous; say they're 100 per cent normal. Heather is the aggressive one. Kristen is more complacent. They weighed 13 pounds at birth and now weigh 20 pounds apiece.
