The World's Oldest Twins, Celebrate 102nd Birthday Together

world's oldest twin
Pugh and Millward
Few people know what it's like to turn 102, but Ena Pugh does.

And, luckily for her, there's at least one person who understands how it feels: her twin sister Lily Millward.

Pugh and Millward, who live both near the town of Brecon, Wales, celebrated the big 1-0-2 on January 4 the same way they celebrated the first one more than a century ago -- side by side.

In fact, they haven't missed a birthday apart from each other since the sisters were 79 and both were ill, according to The Sun.

But while the 102nd birthday was one worth celebrating, it wasn't under the best of circumstances. Ena had to visit Lily in the hospital where she is recovering from a broken hip.

According to Dianne Powell, Lily's 65-year-old daughter, her mom slipped and fell just before Christmas.
