Russian doctors have stumbled upon a remarkable tale of survival. They detail finding a needle that has been lodged inside an 80-year-old woman’s brain her entire life. The needle seems to be the result of a botched infanticide, but it has apparently caused no major health issues and will not be removed.
Warning: while it is a remarkable story of survival, the article contains details of what may have happened which some people could find upsetting.
Yeah, I didn’t paste in any more of that article and added a warning as it’s a pretty grim back story. She is doing remarkably well all things considered.
