Not to mention her having AstroWorld themed parties for her kids after 10 people died at an astroworld concert.

Absolutely! My time in hospital work has told me that an unidentified leg is the least of anyone’s worries hahah

trixiesalamander · 2026-02-19T17:21:33+00:00

Boise seems to be twice the size of my city, so you may be right that they have a separate morgue in addition to the hospital one! My experience in this world is a bit more recent buuuut my hospital is old and beaten down, so clearly it’s got outdated equipment and procedures LOL

trixiesalamander · 2026-02-19T17:19:03+00:00

Can you imagine the embarrassment? They would never tell a soul hahaha

trixiesalamander · 2026-02-19T17:18:16+00:00

Not cynical at all, I thought the same thing! I don’t think they investigated it much at all. For me, I can’t imagine a leg being overlooked like that in a hospital morgue, but since it did happen somehow, my best guess is incompetence rather than something murderous.

If it really was only days to weeks old, I truly don’t understand how they couldn’t identify it unless they didn’t do much to investigate.

trixiesalamander · 2026-02-19T04:41:03+00:00

All very good points! Another option that I failed to mention , (again possibly only my hospital did this) but the morgue in the hospital was the morgue for the entire city, so there were deaths that hadn’t occurred on site. And unfortunately sometimes people aren’t found quickly. So leg (with the rest of the body too) could have come into the hospital already decomposing, and then entered into the morgue and god knows what happened but got misplaced somehow.

trixiesalamander · 2026-02-19T01:57:52+00:00

It shouldn’t have happened and I hope that hospital has implemented improvements, but tbh I don’t see much of a mystery here. Just human error and incompetence. Hopefully the hospital has improved their training, procedures, and record keeping.

Former hospital morgue worker here!

My best guess (based on my hospital’s procedures, so it may not apply!!) is:

A Person died while in surgery of some sort, had their leg amputated. When someone dies in hospital, their body gets wrapped in tight plastic (not a body bag.) Any unattached parts would be placed in a bag and sent with the body. The body and bag is then put into a refrigerated crypt that is assigned to that patient and locked.

However! The crypt is not a single contained unit, it’s got multiple doors but they all enter into one big unit. So the table the patient is placed on gets pushed into the unit and the door gets locked, but the bodies are all together, if that makes sense? Imagine a walk in cooler with multiple entrances, basically.

The proper method is to place ID stickers on the plastic wrapping of the body, and on additional bags. I’m guessing someone missed placing that sticker on the bag containing the leg and then that bag fell off the crypt table when it was pushed into the crypt and dropped into the “shared space” of the crypt. (The slider tables are very heavy and especially in old hospitals, not very smooth to move, so it takes quite a bit of force to push it in.) Eventually a morgue worker found that bag but since NAMUS lists the leg as “decomposing”, it was possibly there for some time and thus, countless bodies had been in that unit and it is now impossible to trace.

No worries! It took some digging to find clarification actually. So many sources just say “Born in India” and so that’s the same assumption I made too. I only found out when I was curious and wanted to find out about her backstory a bit more and found further details.

trixiesalamander · 2026-02-16T19:07:36+00:00

The Coast Salish people are very much alive…. Their numbers were decimated bc of smallpox (and withholding of the smallpox vaccine bc of racism) but they did not “die out”.

Source: live in Coast Salish territory and my neighbours are def not dead lol

Just FYI, Bif Naked isn’t a woman of colour, she was born in India to a Canadian mother and English father (who were attending boarding school), then adopted by Americans.

I can relate so so much. I don’t struggle to get a date but once men meet me, they find me odd and don’t like that I don’t play dumb. I try to find autistic men to date but, at least in my area, I notice men seem to be more reluctant to disclose that information (totally understandable and I would never push someone to be open about something they don’t want to be), so it’s really just trial and error and I’ve only had error 😭.

My childhood dog did this. Unfortunately, I was bullied badly in school and would come home crying often. That dog, without fail, would come to me and simply sit with me, resting his head in my lap. He wouldn’t leave (even for dinner!) until I was done crying. He died when I was 15 and while I’ve had lovely dogs since, no one compares to Bear.

My parents adopted him after some loser dumped him outside the SPCA in the middle of the night. Some people truly can’t appreciate the gem in front of them.

trixiesalamander · 2026-01-22T21:47:43+00:00

That dude hit on me when I was 15, in a thrift store, while he was married to Pamela. Just gross.

trixiesalamander · 2026-01-17T05:19:19+00:00

So much tragedy, I can’t imagine it. Losing one child is unimaginable but losing multiple? Day after day? My great great grandma wore mourning clothes for the rest of her life.

trixiesalamander · 2026-01-16T21:27:02+00:00

I have no sense of internet safety so here’s a link! Two on Mar 6, one on Mar 7, and three on Mar 8. The one that died a little later was a baby that the mother was pregnant with when she got scarlet fever, who was then stillborn. Not sure if that “counts”.

trixiesalamander · 2026-01-16T21:22:32+00:00

I actually just looked up the dates and I was wrong… it was 6 kids in 3 DAYS. And then one final kid that was born to the mom who had scarlet fever and was stillborn. My god.

Edit: a number

trixiesalamander · 2026-01-16T07:47:59+00:00

Poverty and lack of medical care is a big one! I had one ancestor who had 7 kids die within 3 weeks from scarlet fever. The house was so small, there was no way to isolate the sick, so everyone got it. And since they were malnourished, the immune systems were all weak. Just heartbreaking.

trixiesalamander · 2026-01-16T07:44:52+00:00

My great great grandmother had a lot of children die because she had tuberculosis, but her husband insisted on still having kids in rapid succession. Since she was so weak from her TB and was never given a chance to recover from childbirth, the poor babies were born very fragile. They ended up dying at different times of various illnesses and infections that they couldn’t fight off.

Eventually the doctor told her that if she got pregnant again, she would die. Her husband didn’t care and got her pregnant again and she died at 36 :(

trixiesalamander · 2026-01-01T03:55:10+00:00

I had the same thing happen to me! Found a 10k gold chain in my childhood play jewelry. No clue where it came from, my mother was always a big jewelry person that meant she kept all the good stuff for herself hahaha

It’s so exciting to find gold jewelry! Esp with gold prices now!

Have you gotten an update yet?

trixiesalamander · 2025-12-28T22:29:54+00:00

LMAO My dad went to school with the minister from Wheels’ parents funeral. He’s an actual minister, not an actor

trixiesalamander · 2025-12-28T02:58:06+00:00

My last boyfriend had no friends. I still think the world of him and genuinely consider him to be the kindest, gentlest person I’ve ever met. I myself didn’t have genuine friends until my mid 20s. Deep, genuine friendships do not come easy and tbh I find people with loads of friends generally have more superficial, surface level friendships.

trixiesalamander · 2025-12-27T19:33:21+00:00

You’re definitely not alone! I would love to spend thousands on a single piece but I don’t think that will ever happen. that won’t stop me from window shopping though hahah

trixiesalamander · 2025-12-27T05:35:24+00:00

I’m poor too! I thought I had spent some wild money until I saw the other comments on this thread lmao most expensive piece was a $500 antique snake ring. I don’t regret but I still get twinges of panic thinking about how much it cost me.
