SIX LIMBED
  CHILD
 LAKSHMI
BANGALORE, — A 2-year-old girl who
 was born with four arms and four legs
  showed the first signs of movement
Thursday following a marathon operation
to remove the extra limbs, doctors said.
    The girl, Lakshmi, was being kept
  sedated in the intensive care unit at a
  hospital in the southern Indian city of
Bangalore during what doctors said was
  a critical 72-hour period following the
                 operation.
"She is progressing in the right
direction," he said. Patil said doctors were
 slowly reducing the amount of sedatives, but
    she was still breathing on a respirator.
Doctors were still cautious, however. "She is a
  2-year-old girl who has undergone massive
 surgery, we have to watch and wait," said Dr.
        Mamatha Patil, a Sparsh Hospital
                 spokeswoman.
 "Lakshmi has moved her toes and hands for
the first time and opened her eyes briefly," Dr.
Sharan Patil, the head surgeon, told reporters.
