Arun Chetan and Jaidev Kamal are one month old twins from India. Arun and Jaidev are both vision impaired, but doctors are sure to what extent yet. Their eyesight will need to be periodically checked for degree and signs of changes.Please keep the agency updated on how Arun and Jaidev adjust!

Jamila, Anisa, & Nader are being great older siblings since Aamina & Nikhil brought Arun & Jaidev home. Arun & Jaidev have had their eyes checked by leading optometrists in the US. Aamina & Jaidev are relived to find out that all they need is very huge prescribed glasses for them to see. Jamila & Anisa love their little brothers so much! They play with them all the time. Nader doesn't really understand that he's a big brother yet, but one day he will. Aamina & Jaidev are adjusting from having three kids to having five over night. They are loving every minute though.
