Indian baby stuns doctors after being born with heart on the outside of his body... and surviving into his sixth day

A poor Indian couple have made a desperate appeal for financial help to save the life of their son who was born with his heart outside his body. Priyanka Pal, 24, was rushed to the labour room of the government-run Sultanpur Hospital in Uttar Pradesh state late last Wednesday where she gave birth to a baby boy. But the baby was born with the incredibly rare condition ectopia cordis, which left his heart protruding from his chest, and now needs expensive emergency surgery to prevent him from dying within days.
