一對同卵雙胞胎護士在其任職的（美國）喬治亞州雅典的皮埃蒙特雅典地區醫學中心的接生室，喜迎一對同卵雙胞胎女嬰呱呱墜地。

The twin nurses, Tori Howard and Tara Drinkard, in Athens, Georgia at Piedmont Athens Regional Medical Center, helped deliver the babies, Addison and Emma Williams by chance.

這對雙胞胎護士，托莉．霍華德與塔拉．錐卡德，是碰巧幫忙接生這對雙胞胎女嬰，愛蒂森與艾瑪．威廉斯。

這對新生兒的父親，布蘭南．威廉斯說，他對於進接生室真的很緊張，但當他聽說有一對雙胞胎協助接生時，就覺得心情輕鬆了點。

雙胞胎寶寶們的母親蕾貝卡也任職於這家醫院，所以寶寶的父親確信，他們一家人與這對雙胞胎護士會保持聯繫。
