Lakshmi Tatma (octopus girl) is a two year old girl born in a poor rural village in the Indian state of the Bihar. She is connected to a headless parasitic twin, and has 8 limbs.

Lakshmi is undergoing a £100,000 Surgery. The operation will require 30 surgeons working in eight-hour shifts to separate her from her “other half” and could take up to 40 hours.
