She had appeal when a girl. Too bad. Wonder how she got a ruptured intestine?

 

[MasterBlaster]

Crazy way to die.

 

[FireFighterZero]

Sepsis is a bitch. Terrible way to go.

My little girl had a burst bowel a month or so after birth, she had an ostomy bag for a few months, no belly button now and her poor front is all scared.

 

[MasterBlaster]

I've never seen anyone w/o a belly button. Poor thang...

 

[Raj]

That is where she pooped from. It was a struggle to keep her from pulling it out.

We call it "Tractor Rap" Butch... heh

 

[Altissimus]

Grateful Dead covered "Sing Me Back Home" many times though dropped it in the early 70's .... Covered "Mama Tried" from the early years through the 90's. Merle was a legend even back then.
