A super-cute miracle baby who was born with 12 fingers and 12 toes has left doctors scratching their heads.
Before adorable Jacob Duffy entered the world in November last year, there was no indication that anything was wrong with him.

However, shortly after his arrival, mum Rachael Hendry 24, and dad John Duffy, 28, were shocked to discover that he had an extra digit on each of his four limbs.
The seven-month-old tot has an undiagnosed complex syndrome which has left him with a number of defects, including a hole in the heart and eye conditions.

Jacob, from Leeds, West Yorks, also suffers from coloboma, nystagmus and microphthalmia as well as cataracts, leaving him severely sight impaired.

One-in-10,000 condition coloboma causes gaps in the structure of the eye and poorly Jacob suffers from it at every layer in both eyes.

Microphthalmia has left him with one eyeball smaller than the other while he also has nystagmus which causes his eyes to twitch.

Doctors expect the small patent foramen ovale hole in his heart to heal before his first birthday and are reluctant to put him under anaesthetic to operate before then.

As well as his extra fingers, Jacob's thumbs are triphalangeal which gives them an extra joint.
He also has a dairy milk allergy, a problem with swallowing and he requires a thickened feed.

According to my mum she almost ran out of the hospital when she gave birth to me and saw I had eleven fingers, my dad had to calm her by showing her his own mutilated finger, I had mine removed at an early stage, If my first born comes to this world without eleven fingers his mum has a lot of questions to answer grin
