It also disturbed me. But then reality hits when you realize thats probably just a doll considering how they are holding it.

These people have no shame. If it's not a doll and a baby with a disorder or injury playing that up to have your pictures published on 'Coast to Coast' is deplorable.

That's what I was thinking. The skin looked bumpy, also, like what the Elephant Man had.

Yeah I was thinking the same .But there are other pics online( I don't remember where I saw them) with kids with that disease that look more like "Dora".

The child in the pictures look like a doll. If she wasn't then I agree with Cold. It is horrible and explotive.

If it's not a doll . . . Exploitive? Damn near a hundred years have passed. No money is being made. It looks like a story, BS or not, someone wanted to share and for some reason they used Coast to Coast AM. Thing is, though, the pictures look authentic. The first one, full sized, is at least real. Extremely difficult to fake the ware and tare on a digital camera, but everyone knows that. Perhaps hydrocephalous or even a special child?

Oh I don't know. It's a good place to go to laugh at, or generally just shed aimells pity onto.
I read about a kid with a condition similar to this, during the aftermath of the Chernobyl accident. Really such a shame.

I think it is perfectly possible, not saying this case is real or not, for such a thing to happen to a child (the mind powers) and so on.
Anything is possible.

We can always put you on an airplane to see if it works

Also, why is this in the cryptozoology forum? hahaha

'Course pigs can fly! With the correct amount of thrust, and at a perfect angle, nigh on anything can fly

You do know about ballistics right?

Hydrocephalus it is, It happened in many third world countries. Even in our local newspaper, news of kids suffering from this disease are as common as a house cat...
