"The girl [Lakshmi] is joined to a 'parasitic twin' that stopped developing in the mother's womb. The surviving fetus absorbed the limbs, kidneys and other body parts of the undeveloped fetus."considered a goddess in her village, lakshmi's parents just want her to be normal - they've already had to hid her after a cirus tried to buy her!!
surgery complications include: 2 spines, 4 kidneys (sell those extra suckers!), entangled nerves, 2 stomach cavities, and 2 chest cavities... plus who else knows what else the doctors will find!
surprisingly, the doctors are putting the chances of lakshmi surviving at 75-80%
UPDATE: doctors who performed lakshmi's 24-hour surgery are saying it went "wonderfully well"
