3.7: Miracle Babies and Cautionary Tales
Manage episode 276296161 series 2289157
Did you know that historic Coney Island was once home to a sideshow exhibit of premature infants in life-saving incubators? Ever hear of the Dionne quintuplets, who were conceived and born against all odds before fertility treatments were a thing? The survival of these little ones is nothing short of a miracle, and also a pretty entertaining (and in one case, sad) story. Join Tessa as she ventures solo into the past and tells you all about Dr. Martin Couney and his sideshow babies, and the Dionne Quintuplets.
