LOL! I know what you mean Debbie. Did you see the one about the British woman who was pregnant with triplets and one of them was an ectopic pregnancy; and all three lived?!!! That was amazing too.

It never fails to surprise me to what the human body will do to survive at times...when I was working at the hospital, right after graduating from high school, this 'lady there had an small baby, oh maybe 8-10 months old, something in that age, and it slobbered in silva down the side of its mouth, to where the chin was chaffed and getting an crusty sore from the wetness...this was an era we didnt' really have much in the way of "X-ray" like we do now..the mother had been taking this baby to the doctor to see if she could get the condition stopped, thinking it was perhaps an "pacifier" problem or the way it was drinking liquids. One day she was out front of their apartment on an blanket, in the summer time, and the baby was "fussy", so she went to change it's diaper, to find an nearly 10 inch tape worm had been ejected out of the baby's body. She went screaming to the doctor and he put the baby on "worm" medication immediately..within about three days this baby's "slobbering" stopped, her chin healed up and it had no problem there after of this crusty formation on it's chin area. the before and after "health" of this baby was like an miracle had taken place. The mother was not "dirty"..or an bad mother to the child either. The doctor told her she must of been somewhere the baby picked it up perhaps off an surface area. I can remeber my "mother" tellng us kids to never let the animals "lick" our faces because of picking up possible worms, but I've heard since then that's it straight on contact with them is how you get them. Society now is cleaner then it use to be, concerning some of these old things we had out in the world back then. But detecting them is so much better these days also. See stuff like this can be more then just an "allergy" to something.
