Oregon parents welcome identical triplet girls in rare event
(AP) — Each identical triplet is so tiny she can fit in her father's hand -- and soon these rare medical wonders in Oregon will have painted toenails so the new parents can tell them apart.
The infants -- who respectively weighed 2 pounds, 12 ounces; 3 pounds, 11 ounces and 2 pounds, 15 ounces -- are in the neonatal intensive care unit at Providence St. Vincent Medical Center in Portland.
The mass turned out to be a cyst the size of a basketball and Hills had surgery to remove the ovary and the cyst while she was pregnant.
