INCREDIBLE: Baby Born With A Growing Tail (photo) by informa: 9:41am On Jun 24, 2013
Little Xiao Wei was born with a three-inch tail sticking out of his back. The condition referred to as spina bifida, is as a result of his vertebrae not forming properly.

You can guess that the mum is really devastated...she has begged doctors to help her seven-month old son. Perhaps alarming, is the fact that the protrusion is still growing. Yes, still growing...

The mum says;"We have asked the surgeons to remove the tail but they tell us it is not that simple." A surgeon, Huang Chuanping explained: “The growth is quite well developed and now measures some 10 centimetres.
“If we cut it off, it will simply grow again. We need to repair the spinal canal first to stop it reoccurring."

I hope that will be done as soon as possible, so that this baby can live a normal life. I can imagine that some parents give birth and are so sad about few things like the lack of expenses for naming ceremony and the likes...I guess we can all see the folly in that!

Not a mutation, more of a deformity. Hope it gets corrected soon.
