                    [Title] => Former conjoined boy starts walking
                    [Summary] => WHITE PLAINS (AP) — Clarence Aguirre, one of the conjoined Filipino twins who survived a long series of delicate surgeries to separate him from his brother, Carl, has begun walking, Montefiore Medical Center officials said.


Carl is expected to follow in his brother’s footsteps soon.

Montefiore spokesman Steve Osborne confirmed Sunday that Clarence had begun walking on his own after "Dateline NBC" showed images of the three-year-old, wearing a helmet, taking steps at Blythedale Children’s Hospital in Valhalla.

The focus of the operation will be two large shared veins at the back of the conjoined twins’ heads, which risk being ruptured as doctors attempt to split them between the boys.

If the surgery is successful, the medical team at New York’s Montefiore Medical Center hope to carry out a fourth operation in May to finally separate the twins.
