Autopsy of Baby That Died from Thanatophoric Dysplasia

[Sterlig]

Omg, a baby skull is so soft!

Why did I just watch that? I am going to go cry now... Poor little babe... :(((

This didn't bother me at all. Its sad, but babies die. Adults die, the elderly die we are all going to die. And if we get autopsies we aren't going to feel it anyway. That baby didn't feel a thing.

The wooden cutting board is pretty weird...

Poor little baby. If you know why he died why do you have to cut him all up like that?

South American countries do that. Here in the USA, the organs are placed in a garbage bag, then back in the chest cavity. The embalmer will then treat the organs with a cavity embalming fluid, place them back in the bag, and return them to the chest cavity. The he’d is usually filled with cotton batting..
