Mermaid Girl Takes First Steps

[dgridley]

Milagros, whose name means "miracles" in Spanish, was born with a rare congenital defect known as sirenomelia, or "mermaid syndrome," which left her legs connected from the heels to her groin.

But just over two weeks after an operation to separate her legs she took her first unaided steps across the room.
