Abstract

This article highlights the story of two pediatric neurology residents (identical twin sisters Rana and Rawan) who work at the Division of Pediatric Neurology, Department of Pediatrics, College of Medicine and King Khalid University Hospital (KKUH), King Saud University, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. They were born in October 1990 in the same hospital (KKUH), following preterm delivery at 33 weeks. Their birth weight was 2,000 and 1,900 g, respectively. They were admitted to the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) at KKUH for 2 weeks. Enduring prolonged struggles due to respiratory related conditions and frequent visits to the Emergency Room during their childhood, they excelled in school graduating with high honors throughout elementary, intermediate, and secondary schools. They joined the College of Medicine, KKUH and graduated with the highest distinction (summa cum laude), and were chosen to join the Saudi Board of Pediatric Neurology Residency Program at KKUH. Their story was revealed, while they were doing a round at the same NICU, where they were once cared for 28 years earlier.
