Re: Two Faced

I heard about this right after she was born. I guess different countries have different takes on what is "normal". I know that if I had a child like that I would think more about his or her future than what or who he or she was reincarnated from.

Re: Two Faced

That is a horrible thing. I feel so bad for that little child, and that she is refused special care. I mean, sombody must be blind to not see that she is "special" and needs help. Maybe they could give a surgery to her and make her look somewhat normal! She will be in my thoughts.

Re: Two Faced

Reminds me of the eight-limbed baby that was born a while back: http://www.thisislondon.co.uk/news/article-23419627-details/Toddler+with+eight+limbs+branded+'reincarnation+of +Hindu+god'+to+undergo+life-saving+operation/article.do

She was seen as an incarnation of Vishnu -- however she is now having surgery. Perhaps this child will too.

I'd be wary of bandying about terms such as 'normal'. The world is a huge and diverse place. What one might think oneself may not be the same as the majority of others.
