Two-Inch Feather Emerges From Baby's Neck

snip -

No one knew what was bothering 7-month-old Mya Whittington. Her discomfort stumped her parents and doctors. She was finally hospitalized - and a 2-inch feather eventually poked its way out of her neck, shocking everyone.

"We were just pretty much in disbelief," Mya's dad, Aaron Whittington, 26, told ABCNews.com.

Somewhere in the middle
Did they ever determine what she came down with?

Possibly an avian bird flu sympton?

I'm like a bird, I only fly away
I don't know where my soul is (soul is)
I don't know where my home is
And baby all I need for you to know is
I'm like a bird, I'll only fly away
I don't know where my soul is (soul is)
I don't know where my home is
All I need for you to know is

But if I stay here with you, girl
Things just couldn't be the same
'Cause I'm as free as a bird now
And this bird you cannot change
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

And this bird you cannot change
And this bird you cannot change
Lord knows I can't change

It's odd that the feather flew under the parents' radar for that long. And apparently the doctors were just winging it.
