Twin baby with one lung survives against all odds.
Charlotte seen here was born with one lung and required surgery for a narrow trachea among other treatments.A California girl has beaten the odds to reunite with her twin and return home with her family after a six-month stay at a San Diego hospital.
"Her one lung grew like 1.5 sizes, so it was compensating for the lack of the second one. So doctors did run all the studies. She was totally fine -- oxygenation, everything 100%, so we were cleared to go after four days in the hospital," Karla Valliere told "Good Morning America." "It was six weeks at home -- total bliss. Everything was great ... and all of a sudden she started having breathing problems.
"This set of anomalies, with the single lung, with the way the aorta was wrapped around the trachea itself and the trachea being this narrow, is actually fairly rare," Brigger told "GMA." The Vallieres said that throughout the monthslong stay in the hospital and all the ups and downs, with Charlotte's complications, multiple surgeries and treatment, they drew strength from their own daughter.
