The female baby - so newborn that her placenta and umbilical cord were still attached - was discovered by a man who was searching a bin for recyclables.
Local residents called police and the tiny girl was taken to hospital, where she remains in a critical condition.
A resident who witnessed the girl being taken to hospital said: 'She was still breathing and had a heartbeat. Blood from the wound stained the whole body.'
Doctors worked to close a two-inch wound across her neck, so deep that it went down to her windpipe.
The girl was found in Anshan city, in northeast China.
She is believed to be a victim of the country's notorious one child policy - and seems to confirm the long-held belief that parents upon which this restriction is imposed prefer boys.
Infanticide of 'guilt children' is still a problem in rural areas but it is rare in cities, where children are usually abandoned but not killed.
The baby's fate has horrified China. The girl, who is yet to be named, was spotted when a collectibles scavenger saw what he thought was a dead baby in a bag.
He told police that the child was purple and had not moved until he examined the bag more closely – not convinced that it was a real baby.
Doctors said that baby had been born premature and was probably between 32 and 34 weeks old, weighing just three pounds. Medics said that once the baby had recovered it would be put in a children's home.
My husband and I would be blessed to have such a beautiful Angel!!! If I could I would fly there today, take her in my arms and assure her that nothing bad would ever happen to her again because I would adopt her!!!!
ReplyDeleteShe survived for a reason. Must be a great plan for her somewhere.
ReplyDeleteShe survived because of the human bodies' will to survive. That "plan" stuff is quite dumb; determinism is idiotic.
DeleteI love your reply. You keep being positive and ignore morons like "asfbaegsfx ascv adf aged sdf" who think you aren't entitled to your opinions or beliefs. =]
DeleteI don't think is that moronic to say bad things just happen. Telling ourselves theres a reason behind everything is just a human coping mechanism. But meh, who the fuck am I, or anyone for that matter, to say who's a moron and whose an idiot
DeleteShe survived because our bodies are fucking awesome and won't just allow us to die after having our throats cut and being thrown into a trashcan. "god" has nothing to do with that beautiful little girl surviving. #EVOLUTION BITCHES!
ReplyDeleteHey, fuck off. You're making atheists (like me) look like assholes.
DeleteHey fuck off... everyone has a right to speak... even those you don't agree with.
DeleteSee this is why I stay the hell away from the subject of religion. Because all it ever does is turn random, unrelated subjects into the focus of a pissing contest between atheists and theists. Plan or no plan, god or no god, this little girl is not some piece of evidence to be used in proving one side right or wrong. She is a victim of a clumsy, brutal policy and an outdated culture that see's women as of lesser importance. Shame on all of you for making this about your own petty argument.
DeleteSorry, apart from you asfbaegsfx ascv adf aged sdf, you seem ok.
DeletePaperbolk, you are literally the only person to mention god...
ReplyDeletePoor sweet baby, i hope she is doing well.
ReplyDeleteI thank you my fellow anonymous person for bring that up
ReplyDeleteAnd this is why you have abortions. Kill it before it's a full human being with fully developed pain functions.
ReplyDeleteMakes me want to hug my kids and the thank (again) the doctors that saved my first born's life when he was born without a heartbeat. How could someone possibly look at the face of person that they made from scratch, cut their throat, and then throw them in a dumpster?
