Killarney

<h3>Christmas in Killarney fulfilled the dreams of two very special Cork boys who celebrated their 12th birthday on Saturday last.</h3>
Hassan and Hussein Benhaffaf were born conjoined twins on December 2, 2009. They were successfully separated in 2010 but still face an uphill medical battle.
Prior to celebrating their 12th birthday in Killarney &ndash; their own personal birthday wish &ndash; they have endured close to 60 different operations and medical procedures.
The boys attended Saturday&rsquo;s Christmas in Killarney Parade, earlier in the day they met Santa at Moriarty&rsquo;s Photographic Shop on New St and were treated to a Christmas Sleigh Ride around the town.
They were also well looked after by the staff at Reidy&rsquo;s and Sheahan&rsquo;s Centra on Main St.
On Sunday, the sports mad youngsters attended the Dr Crokes versus Legion relegation showdown in Fitzgerald Stadium.&nbsp;Christmas in Killarney volunteer, Andrew Joy, organised the whole thing on behalf of the family and the festival.
Mayor Marie Moloney accompanied Hassan and Hussein and their mother Angie, around the streets of the town on Saturday.
&ldquo;It was my pleasure as Mayor to welcome these two wonderful and brave twins to Killarney as they celebrate their 12th birthday. Fair play to businesses in Killarney who made their visit so special,&rdquo; said Cllr Moloney.
Their mum Angie Benhaffaf has written heart-warming book called &lsquo;The Little Fighters&rsquo; on the boys&rsquo; remarkable fight for life against all odds.
