A Baby Girl Can Float about on Water for Hours

Trinh is floating on water

    On November 3, 2008, we and her parents’ neighbors witnessed she was put on a stream nearby her hut and gradually float up in sate of lying on her back, widening her arms and stretching her legs on water. She could remain that state for hours while she talked and enjoyed food and drinking water as well. The wonder is that she has not learnt to swim ever before.

Trinh and her Mom in front of their hut.

    Mr. Nguyen Quoc Bang, who is in charge of taking care of her said that they all had a pity on the baby. Her mom, a mentally retarded woman, came from Ben Tre. The baby was what a bad man left her. Comprehending their plight, Mr. Bang decided taking them two to Dong Nai to treat her illness and let them stay in a hut in his garden. Since the garden was surrounded by lakes and cannels and streams so  Trinh at age of 2 was taken cross stream to be familiar with water. Once by chance he dropped her down on the water, he was so surprised to see her floating on water instead of being sunk.
