A young girl in Thailand is said to be attracting thousands of
tourists to her family’s home after she was born with half of her body
like that of a snake’s.
8-year old-Mai Li Fay, from Bangkok, is suffering from a condition called ‘Serpentosis Malianorcis’ or ‘Jing
Jing’s disease’, which, according to Dr. Ping Lao, a Thai expert, causes her to have a lower body similar to a reptile’s.
The girl’s family is said to be regularly besieged by religious
tourists, mostly Buddhists and Hindu pilgrims, who believe that touching
her will bring them good fortune.
