A boyfriend came up with a beautiful way to incorporate his girlfriend's twin sister who has cerebral palsy into their engagement – by proposing to her as well. Anesa Hughes, from north of Knoxville, Tennessee, always joked to her boyfriend, Tyler Fields, that she and her sister Alli were a "package deal" when the pair first began dating. When Anesa and Alli were born three months early, Alli stopped breathing, and she was soon diagnosed with cerebral palsy which has led to physical and intellectual problems, seizures and multiple surgeries. Alli was also recently diagnosed with autism, and her disabilities helped bond the twins making them extremely close, as Anesa, 30, has always looked out for her sister. Anesa would say her future partner would need to love Alli as much as her, and she told Tyler this right away, stressing one day, Alli would need to come and live with her, as she currently lives in Virginia with their parents. Tyler took everything in his stride, and also grew a close bond with Alli, so much so he wanted to incorporate both sisters into his surprise proposal.
