Girl born with a TAIL: Extremely rare 6cm-long defect is 'covered in hair and skin'
daily mail ^

Posted on 11/25/2022 6:36:33 AM PST by algore

A girl in Mexico has been born with a tail, doctors have revealed.

The extremely rare phenomenon has been recorded fewer than 200 times.

The infant, who wasn't identified, was born by a C-section at a hospital in Nuevo Leon. Her parents were healthy and in their late twenties.

Doctors quickly spotted a 5.7cm-long (2.2 inch) tail that was 'soft', 'covered in skin and fine hair' and had a 'pointy' tip.

Detailing the incident in Journal of Paediatric Surgery Case Reports, doctors, led by Dr Josue Rueda, believe the case is the first ever recorded in Mexico.

The medics said the baby was born full-term and there were no complications during pregnancy.

Her parents already had a son who was healthy.

But shortly after she was delivered doctors quickly spotted the tail.

They said it was sticking out at the end of her tailbone with its base slightly to the left.

It varied between 3mm and 5mm in diameter, narrowing towards the 'pointy' tip.

The doctors wrote: 'The structure was soft, covered in skin, and fine hair, it could be passively moved with no pain, but showed no spontaneous movement.

'The baby cried when the structure was pinched with a needle

So you are saying that you could tell if your girlfriend was happy to see you because she would be wagging her tail like the dog?

Cool!

“Small Potatoes”. A small town is "blessed" by babies being born with tails. Mulder and Scully arrive only to encounter a suspect who proves nearly impossible to identify.

One of the funniest episodes that I remember.

My wife has some weird growth on her tailbone that she had removed as a teenager.

Decades later she told me she was always concerned that any future mate would find the scars off-putting.

I told her that by the time I saw it, I was much more interested in other parts of her body. Still am.

(Although to be honest, it looks like a pin-cushon in the daylight...lol)

Decades ago I read “Life in a Putty Knife Factory” and “Low Man on a Totem Pole”. Funny, insightful writer.

Her: “A small penis is nothing to worry about.”
Him: “Sometimes I just wish you didn’t have one.”

Wonder who outed her to the Daily Mail? Parent? Doctor? Hospital staff?
That's one line in my bio that would always be brought up, no matter what I grow up to accomplish in life. I could cure cancer, and this blurb would still lead.
Thanks, Mom.

Smith wrote a lot of really fun stuff. He’s been a favorite of mine since high school. I only have 14 of his books, though I’ve read quite a few others.

Will need to follow up on that “Small Potatoes” episode. Could stand a good laugh in today's world. :)

After searching further, able to find the eppy of the traveling Insurance salesman....”Terms of Endearment” in season 6. In its heyday a newly broadcast XFiles was seldom missed.
To see how far it went downhill was such a disappointment.

I had a friend in public school, who told me that he was born with six fingers on each hand. The doctor removed the extra fingers when he was an infant. He showed my the scars.

Presidementia XiJinBiden’s controllers are fully on-side with Bill-zebub Gates’ and the WEF fascists’ goals of massive population reduction. The problem is, to maintain their lifestyle, they need people to do the manual labour for them. They want to get rid of Westerners (Euroweenies, Americans, Canadians, Kiwis and Aussies) who are used to a higher standard of living, and import the poor from around the world. They can then turn them into economic slaves of the elites. The elites figure the ‘new’ people will work longer and harder, for much less, than the ‘Western’ will work for. Population replacement is the name of their game.

I once dated a girl who was born with 12 toes, and she thought I would find that off-putting . . . nah,

Wider forefoot, greater stability. No problem.

I dated a girl who had three breasts. Kept me very busy.

Let me guess. The one on her back was for slow dancing?

I find it sad that they just chopped it off. It was part of her body, for pete’s sake.

“This is a case for Fox and Scully.”

I think Fox was interested in Scully’s tail.
