Good luck tommorrow Lakshmi Tatma. She's a two-year-old girl - named after the Hindu goddess of wealth who has four arms - and will undergo a 40-hour operation tomorrow as doctors try to give her a chance at a normal life: she was born with four arms and four legs. [DT Link]
Well I hope it was a success. Pretty little face.
YanıtlaSilHow touching that the villagers thought her condition was a gift from the gods not an affliction.
I'll follow up tomorrow, just got back and was palnning to post how the op went - yes, I thought that too...no 'witch-burning' pitchfork lynch-mob but a heartwarming 'gift' attitude.
