Do you see the picture of that cute little girl? She is two years old now.Lakshmi was born in a small village Rampur in Bihar.She was born with 8 limbs. The people believed her to be an incarnation of Goddess Lakshmi and started to seek the girls blessings! The parents of this girl want to get her operated, but as we know, they cannot afford it.Scientifically this baby had a cojoined twin that failed to develope in the mother's womb but had torso limbs and no head.Dr. Sharan Patil visited the family and was able to mop up$200,000 for the operation.
The 40 hour mammoth operation started on Tuesday and required a team 36 surgeons to perform it. The doctors say the "Parasitic Twin" of Lakshmi has been separated from the spinal cord and that all necessary vital tissues have been retained for the child's survival. The orthopedic surgeons have a tough time thinking about how to separate the fused bones.
While the doctor's team is working real hard for this girl, it is our duty to pray for her for miracles to happen.
