Twins Sapphire and Ruby Wirt sparkle with life despite being given almost no chance of survival after being born HOURS away from the abortion deadline. The tiny pair, now two, were both smaller than their mother Caroline's hand and doctors said it was incredibly unlikely they would both pull through. They were covered in bubble wrap to keep warm after being delivered by cesarean section at 24 weeks - on the very last day of the legal limit for abortion. But despite a string of health problems since their birth in January 2015 they have survived to become happy and healthy little girls.
