Franks To Play Little Fighters Gig
17th Feb 2010
Everyman Gig for The Little Fighters
The conjoined boys have earned the nickname the little fighters
as a result of their extraordinary battle to stay alive.
Joined at the chest, doctors werent sure if they would survive pregnancy
but they are thriving and will undergo a 20 hour separation surgery in London
later this year.
Angie from Cork and Algerian-born Azzedine spoke of their joy and pride in
their boys Hassan and Hussein, describing them as a gift.
It was never expected that they would live and do as well as they are
said Angie, we hope that after the operation they will be two healthy
individuals that will live long healthy lives.
Family and friends have come together to organise a benefit concert in aid of the boys surgery.
Headlining the bill are The Frank and Walters and guests.
Tickets are €25 with all proceeds going directly towards the cost of the
boys surgery in London.
