Judith Nwokocha is a professional photographer from Canada. She had been building her career for too long, constantly putting off having children with her family. And when she did, it was too late…
At the age of nearly 30, Judith was unable to conceive. So her husband suggested IVF. But even then it wasn’t as easy as all her attempts ended in failure. It wasn’t until eight long years later that the procedure ended in failure!
The long-awaited pregnancy
Judith found out she was pregnant in early 2016. At the first ultrasound they told her that the baby was one, but the mom-to-be was already convinced at that time that she was expecting twins. And she turned out to be right! At the second study, the doctor confirmed her hunches.
“The twins, Kamsi and Kachi, were born on time, but when their mother first saw the babies, she was sure the medical staff had made a mistake… The thing is, Judith, like her husband, is dark-skinned. As it turned out, Kaci had congenital albinism, which affected the color of her skin, hair, and eyes. Otherwise, she is perfectly healthy, just like her brother.
The unusual twins became the heroes of many world media and their photos flew around many countries.
The twins are nowKamsi and Kaci are almost 6 years old. The fame they have gained through their different skin color, together with their mother photographer, has made the children real celebrities. They participate in modeling shows and work with advertising agencies.
In their free time, the twins enjoy music and drawing. Kamsi and Kaci love spending time together, and their mom says they are each other’s closest friends.
