SAINI SUNPURA, INDIA
A little girl called Lali who was born with two faces is being hailed as the reincarnation of a Hindu Goddess. The baby who was delivered without incident is in good health and is attracting alot of attention.
The baby has an extremely rare disease called craniofacial duplication, where a single head has two faces. She has two pairs of eyes, two noses, two pair of lips and she drinks milk from boths mouths. She is also said to close all four eyes at the same time.
Although this disease is usually linked to serious health problems and complications the baby was delivered without incident and is doing fine, as reported by her father.
People from all around the small village are coming in to pay respect to whom they think is the reincarnation of the Hindu goddess of valor, Durga. They come to touch her feet out of respect and offer money to her parents. The village chief has already made it clear that he intends to raise money to build a temple in the village.
Her father thanked the gods in what he said was "god’s gift to us". The child reportedly is behaving like a normal child.
