Doctors say infant with rare condition is doing well

A baby with two faces was born in a northern Indian village, where she is doing well and is being worshipped as the reincarnation of a Hindu goddess, her father said Tuesday.

The baby, Lali, apparently has an extremely rare condition known as craniofacial duplication, where a single head has two faces. Except for her ears, all of Lali's facial features are duplicated — she has two noses, two pairs of lips and two pairs of eyes.

"My daughter is fine — like any other child," said Vinod Singh, 23, a poor farm worker.

Lali has caused a sensation in the dusty village of Saini Sunpura, 25 miles east of New Delhi. When she left the hospital, eight hours after a normal delivery on March 11, she was swarmed by villagers, said Sabir Ali, the director of Saifi Hospital.

"She drinks milk from her two mouths and opens and shuts all the four eyes at one time," Ali said.

Rural India is deeply superstitious and the little girl is being hailed as a return of the Hindu goddess of valor, Durga, a fiery deity traditionally depicted with three eyes and many arms.

'Leading a normal life'
Up to 100 people have been visiting Lali at her home every day to touch her feet out of respect, offer money and receive blessings, Singh told The Associated Press.

"Lali is God's gift to us," said Jaipal Singh, a member of the local village council. "She has brought fame to our village."

Village chief Daulat Ram said he planned to build a temple to Durga in the village.

"I am writing to the state government to provide money to build the temple and help the parents look after their daughter," Ram said.

Lali's condition is often linked to serious health complications, but the doctor said she was doing well.

"She is leading a normal life with no breathing difficulties," said Ali, adding that he saw no need for surgery.

Lali's parents were married in February 2007. Lali is their first child.

Singh said he took his daughter to a hospital in New Delhi where doctors suggested a CT scan to determine whether her internal organs were normal, but Singh said he felt it was unnecessary.

"I don't feel the need of that at this stage as my daughter is behaving like a normal child, posing no problems," he said.

I am so happy this child was born in India where there is a sense of appreciation for her unusual appearence. If she was born in the US they would have a totally different perspective. Good for her parents for accepting this beautiful child.

I'd expect something like this from a country that also allows its resident to be drained of nearly asll their blood to supply a black market in blood shortages. Women to shave their heads so rich women from westerm countries can have long hair extensions etc etc. This is one of many things that happen in that country!

does anyone realize that the indians are having these strange birth defects maybe because it is so close to where we , and other countries test our nucleurs?

this is not only seriously wrong, but imagine these indians thinking that their newborns are gods and goddeses because it goes well with their beliefs, but its really its just radioactive stuff poisoning them!!!!!!!!

food for thought, if any one still thinks anymore>>>

How ignorant of you to say this. INDIANS DONT MARRY THEIR COUSINS, THAT NEVER HAPPENS! WE.DO.NOT.DO.THAT. I KNOW THIS BECAUSE I AM AN INDIAN MYSELF, AND I HAVE NOT MARRIED MY COUSIN
DONT JUST ASSUME THINGS THAT WILL OFFEND OTHERS.
PATHETIC.
I BET YOUR AMERICAN.

Re: Winette –

I HATE arrogant people. This has to do with genetics. … Indian's do not marry their cousins, there are certain religions that marry within their families (religions found in Asia and the Middle East); but just because you're Indian it does not mean you marry your cousin.. dumbass.
