Hate Comment Bait
Doctors fully separated the fused legs of a baby girl known as Peru's "mermaid" early Wednesday, calling the delicate procedure a "true success."Thus robbing the child of a perfectly good career as a sideshow freak.
Before you all flood me with nasty comments -- it's called dark humor. The set up for the punch line was just too good to resist. I am quite happy for the child and it appears this surgery will work far better than many such surguries do, although she still has a tough road ahead.
