The 23-year-old twins, who are connected at the torso, mentioned that they are unable to control each other's "limbs or halves."
They also pointed out that because they share a bloodstream, they would both potentially experience the effects of drugs or alcohol. Carmen further explained that if one of them were to pass away, sepsis would occur.
"Carmen pointed out that one of the twins will inevitably die within hours or days. She questioned why people always ask them about their survival, as if they were doctors.
