A baby born with a rare disease in India is now being worshiped as the reincarnation of a Hindu goddess.Newborn Lali has craniofacial duplication, a condition where a single head has two faces. Except for her ears, all of Lali's facial features are duplicated, including her nose, lips and eyes.
Rural India is deeply superstitious and the little girl is being hailed as a return of the Hindu goddess of valor, Durga, a fiery deity traditionally depicted with three eyes and many arms. Up to 100 people have reportedly visited the baby at her home every day to touch her feet out of respect, offer money and receive blessings, according to her parents.
Somewhat similar to Lil' Bit, the kitten from Arizona who was born in November, minus that whole goddess thing.
