No, that is not the name of my newest novel. You think childbirth is painful? Imagine passing stones through your tear ducts. From The Independent:
A 15-year-old girl called Savitri been admitted to hospital suffering from tiny stones that emerge from the corners of her eyes. Doctors say they have never seen anything like it, and they cannot explain it.
At the girl’s village in Jharkhand, they have two explanations. Either she is possessed by an evil spirit, or she is an incarnation of a goddess. But for Savitri, the condition is anything but a blessing. Before the stones emerge, she suffers from excruciating pain in her head. Tiny stones emerge from her ears, nose and mouth as well.
There are verses in the bible that fortell events like this in the End Days. With Nov. 2nd fast approacing, I am afraid.
Savitri and her family are desperate for a cure. Her bedside at the Rajendra Institute of Medical Science has been overrun by reporters, but the family say no one has been able to offer medical help.
Where is Dr. Sanjay Gupta with his house calls when you need him?
