I hope they can fix it – even though I think it would be awfully cute if she would keep them.
On the 9th of November, Hunan Province’s children hospital received a unique case for its intensive care unit – a new born baby with both legs "glued" together that resembles the body of a mermaid.

Hello Joe,
of course I have shame but I don’t know why I have to be ashamed of something the nature creates. This toppic is interesting .. which is good because it raises the questions why this happened.
And on top of that RGS is good because it is not judgemental in a bad way
Cheers.

I saw a show recently about a little girl from Central American who was born with the same condition. She had an operation to separate her legs and I think it was successful. Wasn’t watching very closely. Very strange though.
Do you think they should call her Ariel?

I think it is sad and I hope they can help the baby. My cousin gave a still birth to a little boy with this same condition.

I dont know about this one. I have seen other pictures of ” supposed ” mermaids and they wernt human. I would just have to say that this is a poor child and that I hope they can do a surgery on her legs and that she will live a normal little girls life. I really how that she will make it.

Actually this is a boy baby and he died a few weeks later due to heart failure. Doctors belive this condition is caused by poor blood flow to the lower portions which in turn creates poor development of the lower limbs as well as internal organs. Chances are he only had one set of leg bones with a fused foot attached. Not to mention he had no kidneys and no bladder so saving him just wouldn’t be possible. The child in Peru with this condition had all the bits she needed.

its not a real mermaid its just a baby with a birth defect an adorible baby yes but to publically discriminate an infant is going to sycologically torture this child for ever isnt it enough to have the poor thing going to public school in the future well i hope the parents go through with surgery and dont keep making it a 1 infant freak show
