3 ARMS..!!??

Three-armed boy surgery 'success' A two-month old boy born with two left arms has successfully undergone surgery to remove one of them, doctors in Shanghai say.
Neither arm was fully functional and doctors decided to remove the one closest to his chest after tests revealed it was less developed.
Doctors say the boy, Jie-jie, will require long-term physical therapy to build strength in his remaining arm.
The operation took place on Tuesday at the Shanghai Children's Medical Centre.
Jie-jie was born on 1 April at a small hospital in Anhui Province.
He is reported to have just one kidney, and may have problems that could lead to curvature of the spine.
When either of his left arms was touched, Jie-jie would cry, but he smiles and responds normally to other stimuli.
JIE JIE'S DIAGNOSIS 1. Smaller arm at front of body removed. Tests found that it was less developed 2. Left arm is in normal position, but does not move unless pulled and does not have a palm 3. Jie-jie has only one kidney and may also have problems that could lead to curvature of the spine 4. Biggest risk will be damage to nerves and blood vessels in shoulder
Before the surgery, doctors were unsure as to how to approach the operation.
Dr Chen Bochang, head of the orthopaedics department at Shanghai Children's Medical Centre, said his case was "quite peculiar".
"We have no record of any child with such a complete third arm."
Dr Chen's hospital is one of China's most experienced in dealing with unusual birth defects, including separating conjoined twins.

Wow, poor Jie-jie.You know incidents like this really make you think hey.I know many people would say how could God let this happen to this innocent baby.You cannot blame God though.Who knows, maybe its a result of the parents doing drugs or drinking too much alcohol,it could be a defect that was genetically passed down the generations.I have my own thoughts on this but what do others think on this issue of birth of disabled/disfigured kids? Be interesting to see your thoughts.God Bless, Craig :)

Okies just clearing that up for our unsaved friends that read this.I get that quite a lot when doing street preaching and tract distribution.People saying but why does God allow these things to happen.Then I tell them that this is the work of the devil.

Good morning Vinten,
Nope I'm not a full time missionary , 'YET' but I am in serious prayer and plan to be.My heart is for Africa and Latin America and the Spanish nations.I will be in serious prayer asking God to direct my path though.Whatever I want doesn't matter, HIS WILL BE DONE :) but in the meantime I am doing some openair preaching and tracting in London and bulking up my knowledge of the Christian faith.I want to put on the full armour of God so I can stand against the devil in the missionfield in times to come.
PS anyone in London there is a missionary conference this Saturday coming.Its where the missionaries from all over the world (Europe,Africa,US) come to London and report back on their experiences in service for the Lord).I listened to last years messages online and its pretty powerful stuff.This 1 guy was saying how he was on deathrow in Russia and lead many prisoners to the Lord.If you interested in attending please check out:
