'Pillow angel' surgically altered to remain small

[Sandman]

They do come across as somewhat delusional.

Ashley’s smaller and lighter size makes it more possible to include her in the typical family life and activities that provide her with needed comfort, closeness, security and love: meal time, car trips, touch, snuggles, etc.

I'm definitely thinking that pillow could be put to better use...

[Provost Harrison]

It is rather chilling though, to think that they have done this because they want a toddler for life...

They should chop off her arms and legs and attach a handle to her back to make her easier to carry.

If she received a brain transplant, would she in any meaningful sense still be "Ashley"? I mean, her memories, modes of thought, and, presumably, sense of identity would be those of the donor.

I don't know why, but I has to remind myself that her name is Ashley - not Asher.

[C0ckney]

ugh.

[Vesayen]

Everyone involved in this should be prosecuted.
