Seventeen-month old twins who were successfully separated by doctors in California returned to their home in Guatemala on Monday.

Maria de Jesus and Maria Teresa were born to a young Mayan couple in a remote village. They spent most of their early days in a hospital five hours away from their parents before being moved to Los Angeles, where they were successfully separated last September.
