Child abuse! Raccoon eyes?!

Child abuse! Raccoon eyes?!

This little girl was physically abused by her mother. Raccoon eye/eyes or periorbital ecchymosis is a sign of basal skull fracture or subgaleal hematoma, a craniotomy that ruptured the meninges, or (rarely) certain cancers. They may not appear until up 2–3 days after the injury. It is recommended that the patient not blow their nose, cough vigorously, or strain to prevent further tearing of the meninges. Depending on cause, raccoon eyes always require urgent consultation and management, that is surgical (facial fracture or post-craniotomy) or medical (neuroblastoma or amyloidosis).

Ya Allah! What kind of a mother she is? How can a normal mother do this to her small kid? Is she a psycho?

How many kids are like this and it all goes unnoticed, so sad. And yes, her mother is mentally disturbed.

Such parents dont deserve children

Such a sweet, pretty girl. She deserves a wonderful home where the only marks she’ll ever have on her will be the kisses of a loving mother and father. It’s hard to believe a human being can do such awful things to such a young girl. Her eyes look so empty and sad too... I hope she recovers emotionally as well.
