🤝 Community Tard Baby General (includes brain dead kids) - Fundies and their genetic Fuckups; Parents of corpses in denial

If a court finds her competent enough to live on her own and be responsible for her own care, it's a grim possibility.

I wouldn't blame a downie woman if she did screen and chose to have a normal child, especially with a seemingly normal husband.

I can appreciate what you're laying down, and certainly, less capable people have had kids and been fine.

Yeah I would think most parents would keep all the posts about their recently-desceased kid up in memory of them, even if the kids death wasn't unexpected. Deleting all the posts is bizarre and doesn't seem healthy.

Gwen is terrible but at least her keeping up everything about her spuds and posting old pics is pretty understandable.

I personally don't think she deleted all her posts, rather she archived them. Instagram gives you the option to put your photos in an 'archive' folder where only you can see them, but you can choose to make them visible again at any time.

Grief is a strange thing, maybe it just felt like the right thing to do, putting her daughter's "online persona" to rest. Definitely healthier than continuing to spam post shirtless pics of your kid >1 year after their death (looking at you, Hollie Dance)

"She showed me beauty through all the pain and trials she endured because of her condition."

Hmm. This sounds kind of fucked up, since it wasn't your pain to endure.
I didn't even know Paisley had a brother and a sister, her whole life really was the potato. About her deleting everything before Paisley died, are we sure she died the day she announced or maybe she could have passed away a few days before, when she said she would stop posting because of the 'haters'?

"So sassy!"

If you can't see this is the most sassy and happy toddler, idk what to tell you...

Gunna pour one out for Thanatos sweet mercy.

To Thanatos, so kind and so good, I offer my praise.
Son of the darkness and the night, of wise Erebos
and raven-haired Nyx, brother of Hypnos who grants a respite
ephemeral and sweet, O Thanatos, you bring a repose
of a longer span–an endless sleep is yours to bestow.
Beautiful Thanatos, well-wreathed with poppies red as blood,
black-winged god, fleet-footed one, bearer of the sharp-edged sword
with which you cut a lock of hair from each who enters Hades’ realm:
some call you merciless, hard of heart, O god who takes
from us those we most love–and yet, dear Thanatos,
yours is a mercy great and freeing, a boundless comfort,
a final peace. O god who gives us life’s last blessing, I praise you.

An artist I follow liked this post of another artist posting about their clearly potato sister. Lights are on but no one's home. The condition she has is congenital, and usually causes death in infancy, and from what I've read if survived, causes 'severe retardation'.

So where's the parental exploitation and drama? The blogs, the Insta, the begging, the sketchy MLM opportunities, the public spectacles for clicks n' views? All I see here is a dude celebrating his sister's 21st birthday.

We mock the parents for exploiting their disabled kids, not the kids themselves.

Plus, two minutes of research also says eye issues (including blindness) and hypotonia are common, but profound retardation is not (mild yes, profound no)

I must've misread then, my bad. I was posting it here mainly because I find that kind of existence horrifying and I'd thought she was being given gifts that were just for show as again, I thought she had profound brain damage, which she apparently does not. Whoops.

I think it's okay to have a place to look at something like profoundly disabled people where you can stare and gawk your heart to contentment, but no one is harmed by it. That said, it looks like she's a well-loved young lady and I'm glad she had a nice birthday. It makes me feel good. I also think her hands look so disgusting and vaguely moist and I cannot stop staring.

This one is interesting because in addition to the elder daughter, who has trisomy 21 (Down syndrome), they have a younger daughter with a probable genetic syndrome that is as yet undiagnosed.

I couldn't find the new working Kiwifarms when Paisley died, I wanted to come here immediately to post about it lol

It's so weird PrayersForPaisley's mom:

1. Deleted all of Paisley's photos (again)
2. Moved on within a week to shill her custom tumbler business and new "photography" business (who are the people buying this shit)
3. Plugged Paisley's gofundme (where a lot of people actually donated)

She says the PrayerforPaisley account is for "Thantophoric Dysplasia Awareness" but she only ever posted the same posed and edited photos of Paisley just laying there being "sassy" with a cringe caption. She never shared what daily life and reality is actually like with this condition or anything useful to actually bring more knowledge and awareness about TDA.

Paisley was a way for this woman to get attention and make money - and now she's (thankfully and finally) gone.

RIP Paisley.

Does this mean the parents could be carriers for some weird genetic condition(s), or do they just have really bad luck?

It's especially sad/weird because Paisley wasn't a total potato. She was seriously disabled, but still an aware, sentient person.

At least she no longer suffering or in pain.

 

[LonesomeDud]

Almost certainly there's a genetic concern. They should absolutely see a genetic counselor.

Amen.

Both, I think. The trisomy 21 is likely unrelated bad luck, but they both may be carriers for something else, which they passed down to the younger daughter. They recently posted that she has been tested for Stickler syndrome but was unexpectedly negative for the genetic mutation in COL2A1. Stickler syndrome is inherited in an autosomal dominant manner, so only one parent needs to pass down a mutated copy of the requisite gene.

It's also possible that the younger child just has a de novo mutation, meaning that whatever is wrong just happened spontaneously at conception, when her DNA was being replicated for division into a new cell. Some disorders are almost always the result of a de novo mutation. This kind of spontaneous genetic mutation is actually really advantageous for evolution of an organism, but sometimes a lightning strike of bad luck happens and you end up with a "pathogenic" mutation in an important gene, one which actually affects a critically important protein. Almost all of us carry at least one rare mutation, but most of the time, we never know, because the robustness of our genetic code means that there are workarounds built in. Sometimes, though, bad luck happens.

I actually bought a really interesting fetal pathology textbook a few weeks ago. It's a textbook that's still in print and considered one of the most essential books in the field of dysmorphology. The edition I bought from the early 1960s and if anyone is interested, we could go through some of the entries together and compare what was known back then to our current understanding.

I think this thread would benefit from some classic teratology shit.

It's not like it could get more horrifying than it already is.

That sounds fun!

Yep, I’m in. Heck, drop a link, I might need a copy.
