Girl born with 8 limbs undergoes surgery!!!

|


Doctors began operating Tuesday on a 2-year-old girl born with four arms and four legs in an extensive surgery that they hope will leave the girl with a normal body, a hospital official said. The girl named Lakshmi is joined to a “parasitic twin” that stopped developing in the mother’s womb. The surviving fetus absorbed the limbs, kidneys and other body parts of the undeveloped fetus.

I can’t imagine what this might be like for the little girl or her parents. It’s at once horrifying and tragic, and it’s amazing that a surgery will leave her with a normal body.
