Reaching 80 years of age is already a great achievement, especially if you are in excellent health. But being able to reach your 80th birthday together with your sibling is something even more special. A pair of twins were lucky enough to blow out 80 candles together during their birthday celebrations with their entire family. David Mosher and his twin, Winnie Mosher-Merrill, live in Brunswick, Maine, United States, and consider themselves very lucky to still be able to share so many things with each other and to be able to organize joyful reunions between their relatives.

The twins never separated, not even in adulthood. In the United States, many people often change cities or even states for work needs or  to study at college, but David and Winnie have always stayed in touch, choosing to live a few kilometers away from each other and without ever leaving their hometown.

In addition to having this long-lasting and special bond, David and Winnie are very lucky: they can blow out eighty candles in the presence of their 103-year-old mother. Mrs. Helen Mosher was only 23 when she gave birth to the twins.
