In today's health matters, the very relieved mother of two formerly conjoined twins says the girls are doing well after the surgery that separated them.

Surgeons at a California children's hospital separated, Angelica and Angelina, during a ten-hour operation.

They had been connected at the abdomen.

The twins' mother says the two are sleeping in separate beds, eating and learning how to walk, with help from a team of therapists.

The two-year-old girls will be returning to their San Jose home very soon.
