berem: Anencephaly is a condition that prevents the normal
development of the brain and the bones of the skull. This
condition results when a structure called the neural tube
fails to close during the first few weeks of embryonic
development. The neural tube is a layer of cells that
ultimately develops into the brain and spinal cord. Because
anencephaly is caused by abnormalities of the neural tube, it
is classified as a neural tube defect (NTD).
If the neural tube fails to close properly, the developing
brain and spinal cord are exposed to the amniotic fluid that
surrounds the fetus. This exposure causes the nervous
system tissue to break down (degenerate). As a result, people
with anencephaly are missing large parts of the brain called
the cerebrum and cerebellum. These brain regions are
necessary for thinking, hearing, vision, emotion, and
coordinating movement. The bones of the skull are also
missing or incompletely formed.
Almost all babies with anencephaly die before birth or within
a few hours or days after birth.

Thanks for the information. This will clear a lot of misconceptions.

Every good gift come from the Lord. God does not give gift that will make us sad. The Bible says( the blessings of the lord it maketh rich and addeth no sorrow) it is high time we seek the Lord.

watched this and my eyes are still tearing, we should always thank God http://wikdpedia.wikispaces.com/The+Anencephalic+as+Organ+Donors

Eyes are not scales but can measure for sure, that thing is more than 4kg, the
legs look like that of a teenager not infant, photoshop all the way, 26litres of fluid? after opening her and the blood she lost, they ask her to deliver the baby normally, am not sure if that 's what i read cox am fasting i may be seeing double.

Typical primate. Is that a-day old baby?

This z outragious and indeed devastating meehn cant jst beliv diz.. Wonders evry day

Stu-pid joke. That thing there Is not 4kg (8.8ib) . I cannot believe this rubbish.

Gayigaskia:

These are signs of the endtime. May God give us the grace to holdforth till the rapture sound.

I go jack dis lecture note later...#Good morning frm Alomo joint..

amiskurie: foul play!
I'm sure they killed the bouncing baby boy.

Bouncing baby boy, i pray o

...and you wonder why people fly their families abroad for emergencies. 'half human half animal'..smh

Can only imagine how people would have been shouting all manner of spiritual incantations at the site of delivery. They even had to term it "half human, half animal". Ignorance is bliss indeed.

Prowizy2: End time

Last days tinz indeed.

Lagusta: thanks for clearing the air jare, God bless u!!!

ignorance is really a disease in this country!!!! so the doctors themselves could not diagnose anencephaly!!! Na Wa oooooooo

did they tell they dont knw its anencephaly? Who gave D jorunalist D name? They explained or wrote that wey 4 laymans purpose. Nigerians needs to think straight.

eaglechild: If proper antenatal care was given to the mother, the diagnosis would have been made in utero by routine obstetric ultrasound scan.

not all Africans have D money to scan. Thats a whole lot of money for a fulani(probably nt educated will spend to scan) she migt nt have being using D hospital before. It all bothers than to D unequal gap between D have/ havenot. Forget those dispensary stores called PHC. U will be aiding death if u are really sick to go there 4 treatment.

berem: Like seriously, how can you say the picture is fake? you might as well say it's photoshopped. smh for the way people reason sha.

Smh for the way you reason, you freak! Some other people noticed the same things that made me pass that comment, so what's your stress?

BCJAY: These are signs of the endtime. May God give us the grace to holdforth till the rapture sound.

End time ke?. The rate of ignorance on this forum is appalling. This baby resulted from the mother not taking folic acid supplements and you are crying endtime.

If you are still in your reproductive age, or you plan on having children soon, start taking folic acid.
