Two-headed baby born in India defies the odds to live 30hours (pics)

When Anita Tiwari, 28, from Uttar Pradesh, India
gave birth to a two a headed baby boy, (co-join
twins) doctors didn't expect him to survive for
long but he defied them to live for thirty hours.
Soon after his birth at the Star hospital, crowds
trooped to the hospital to catch a glimpse of
what they believed to be a 'miracle baby'.

Soon after the delivery, Anita who wanted a boy
after having two girls said: "I thought my baby
boy would be like others but he is not fine. I
would have been very happy if he was a normal
baby but this is tragic. I’m finding this very
difficult."
She was admitted to New Maa Saroj Nursing
Home, in Kanpur, but due to the non-availability
of any senior doctors she was referred to Star
Hospital nearby where she was operated.
Rajeev Tiwari, the manager of New Maa Saroj
Nursing Home, said: "A baby boy with two heads
was born on Saturday and was initially in a
healthy state. But as hours passed his condition
worsened as he could not feed and suffered
breathing issues."

He added that the baby sadly
died yesterday, 30 hours after it was born.
Anita and her husband Satish are now coming to
terms with their loss and are grieving for the
remarkable birth back home with their daughters
