Baby Born with 2 Faces in India

In northern India, a baby was born with two faces. The baby has a rare condition called craniofacial duplication, where one head has two faces. All of her facial features are duplicated, except for her ears. She has two noses, pairs of lips, and pairs of eyes.

She is doing well and is being worshiped as the reincarnation of a Hindu goddess. Hundreds of pilgrims have traveled to visit her and touch her feet out of respect and to receive blessings.

Child Born With Four Arms and Four Legs

In India, a team of 13 surgeons have started operating on a two year old girl named Lakshmi Tatama who was born with four arms and four legs. She had a parasitic twin that stopped developing after birth. The twins are joined at the pelvis and both have a pair of arms and legs but only Lakshmi has a head. Her parents see her as a reincarnation of a Hindu goddess but she needs the operation if she is going to live past her adolescent years. The operation will last for 40 hours and the family isn’t being charged anything for any of the costs.
