Khadija Khatoon Khadija, 21, from
Kolkata, West Bengal, Eastern India, was born without a face and her
mouth is a small slit on the left side of her face. When she was born,
concerned doctors were baffled by her condition for months. Although it
has never been confirmed, they believe she has a form of
neurofibromatosis, a rare deformity that causes tumours to grow along
nerves. Medics told Khadija and her family there was nothing they could do after extra skin continued to grow out of control.
