It is amazing to think what science can do these days. This girl was born in India two years ago, and now has been able to have surgery to remove her 4 extra limbs. In the past, if someone was born with such an anomaly, they probably would die and kill their mother during birth. Even if they did survive that, they would be permanently debilitated for the rest of their life. After her surgery, they reconstructed her hips so that soon she will be able to walk and lead a normal life. History is filled with stories of "circus freaks," but nowadays, they are instead seen as an opportunity for wonders of medicine to shine.
