A baby girl in Tu Nghia district of the central province of Quang Ngai had a small tumor at her sacrum, at birth. This tumor has grown to be over 2cm long after two years.

Huynh Chau Hai Nhi, 2, was born at the hospital of Dak Lak Province in August 2010. The baby was deformed at birth: having a stiff spine, her legs were at her neck and having a tumor on her sacrum.

The baby was treated at the Children’s Hospital 1 in HCM City. Doctors put her legs to normal positions but both legs are paralyzed. The tumor was defined malignant. The hospital refused to “touch” this tumor and asked the family to wait for assistance from foreign experts or sending her to an overseas hospital.

The baby’s family is poor so they had to take her home. The baby is 2 years old but she is only 7kg in weight. The parent recently took her to a hospital in Da nang in the hope of rehabilitating her paralyzed legs. While the legs have not been cured yet, her “tail” is getting longer.
    
“Seeing my daughter’s tail, some people told us that we delivered a demon. Whenever I saw her crawling by her hands, I felt an intense pain. I only wish that some hospital agrees to treat her,” said the baby’s father, Huynh Duy Ngoc Vuong.
