She lived for 99 years with organs in all the wrong places and never knew it

Imagine if her organs had been in the right place. She might have lived to be 120.

I’m sure her heart was in the right place all 99 years.

So, were her Big Toes where her Little Toes should have been? Were her Thumbs and Pinkies swapped? How far does this “reverse” go?

or maybe that’s why she lived so long :)

our organs are in the wrong places!! :)

The entire body layout is reversed (left/right) as in a mirror image.

As you may have noticed when viewing yourself in a mirror, this does not affect the perceived configuration of your big toes and little toes.

Nor will your mirror image appear to be "standing on its head."

I’ll have to check my mirror tonight. Could have sworn it flipped finger and toes.

Maybe I’ll also check the mirror in the hall bathroom. The Master Bedroom mirror might be up to its old tricks. I hope those guys are conspiring when I’m sleeping.

Long as she didn’t have man hands.

Like George the Animal Steele!! :)

She grabs his hand and squashes it when he goes in her purse lol

Are those three going to be next week’s Democrat candidates entering the race for 2020? They need to buy some three piece suits first. No one holds a rally in a long, shiny aluminum gown.

[irishjuggler]

Was thinking the same. If she made it to 99 with the “wrong” anatomy, not sure how thrilled the rest of us should be about being “right.”

[The_Media_never_lie]

Sometimes I tune into CNN, then realize my brain is reversed but soon as I view the b.s. and lies, I snap out of it.

[Larry Lucido]

Yes!

I remember reading, quite a few years back, of a man who had his organs just opposite of where they should be. So it has happened before.

My digestive tract is completely reversed, but heart, lungs are normal. It’s been an issue a couple of times, the docs don’t believe me until they’ve seen it for themselves (don’t ask, it’s not pleasant).
I also have an appendix which runs the width of the abdominal cavity, from the wrong side; very unusual I’m told. Doc told me to pay attention to pains coming from anywhere, and to tell the ER.
