 Fri Mar 06, 2009 12:04 am The curious case of the stone baby |
|
| Quote: | By Diane Mapes
While a 92-year-old woman delivering a 60-year-old baby may sound like a bizarre plot twist from the movie �Benjamin Button,� it�s true. Huang Yijun, 92, of southern China, recently delivered a child which she�d been carrying for well over half a century.
The baby wasn�t alive, however. The woman was carrying a lithopedion � or stone baby. It's a rare phenomenon that occurs when a pregnancy fails and the fetus calcifies while still in the mother�s body.

Creepy... I'd freak out if I knew that was inside me.

Some of us fall by the wayside
And some of us soar to the stars
And some of us sail through our troubles
And some have to live with our scars
