(Medical Tourism Magazine) – She will never be able to run and play like the other children do, but doctors are hopeful she will have a leg to stand on. After losing her twin sister at birth, Ana Paula, a 22-month girl from Panama, is in Los Angeles awaiting a life-changing medical tourism procedure next month in which doctors will surgically remove two of her three legs. Baby Ana Paula was born a conjoined twin, united at the pelvis with her sister at birth in a rural village in Panama.
