Stuff.co.nz| Friday, 29 August 2008 A two-headed baby born in Bangladesh has died because his parents could not afford proper medical care. The baby, a boy named Kiron, died at home after developing a fever and breathing difficulties, Agence-France Press reported. He was born on Monday by caesarean section weighing 5.5kg. 150,000 people gathered at the clinic where he was being cared for, with police needed to control the crowds. Doctors advised the parents to transfer Kiron to a hospital in the capital, Dhaka, but they could not afford to take him there. ====================================================================================== Nothing I can say really Except: Its a pity the world has TRILLIONS to spend on guns and tanks and killing machine... ....but it cannot help the ones that most need it

Aww this is too sad. I get upset because so many mostly in the west die from eating too much and there are so many who die from starvation. The scale isn't balanced is it?

All around the world people are too worried about themselves and their countries than facing the real issues at hand, and helping people be able to get the Financial and Medical help they need. It is becoming a shame that they just leave so many people out, and leave them to die, and then say everything is alright. It is truly time for a change.
