Tumour In Baby’s Brain Contained Body Parts And A Foot
DR. Paul Grabb is operating on three-day-old Sam Esquibel at Memorial Hospital for Children.
An MRI scan suggests a microscopic tumor on the newborn’s brain.
The skull if opened and Dr Grabb (indeed) pulls out a baby’s foot and assorted body parts. Says he:
“It looked like the breach delivery of a baby, coming out of the brain. To find a perfectly formed structure (like this) is extremely unique, unusual, borderline unheard of.”
Sam’s parents, Tiffnie and Manuel Esquibel, are happy to have their son home.
“You’d never know if he didn’t have a scar there,” says Tiffnie Esquibel, pulling a sock onto her son’s head.

If folks don’t believe children are formed early in the womb, here’s another example.

now I’ve read something like this before….. oh hang on, it was a Stephen King book - the Dark Half. I think he explained it pretty well. In 30 years time, that foot will turn up and start killing people.
Or something.

How can you be borderline unheard of? You’ve either heard it or you haven’t… and how would a tiny body end up in a brain? Why would it develop normally but stay miniature?
I demand a professional turns up and explains it to us - like they would if this was an MM thread in the olden days.
I’m a qualified forensic pathologist by the way…
