The Human-Skin Lampshade and other True-life Oddities from the News

[Monastic555]

After seeing that auction on the human-skin lantern, I realized that there are other true oddities from the news that sometimes miss the radar and so should be posted.
To start off, I just found this one. Margaret Boemer's baby was "born" twice. In a Texas Children's Hospital interview, doctors described how the need to rid Boemer's fetus of a rapidly growing tumor required them at Boemer's 23rd week of pregnancy to remove the fetus completely from the uterus until it was "hanging out in the air" so that they could cut away the tumor and then re-position the fetus into the uterus. LynLee was "born again" by C-section 13 weeks later.

Isn't that lampshade, REALLY OLD?? with no link on your other claim, why is this a current event?

Are you trying to start a conversation about oddities or specifically this "born twice baby"?

[Monastic555]

To answer your question, I'm not limiting the thread to just the "born twice" baby. Otherwise I would have begun a thread on that oddity alone. As I said, it's for all oddities.
