A Pillow Angel gets a shot of estrogen!
“Pillow Angels” are an exciting designer breed of child—like human puggles!—that has been around since 2004, when it was engineered by the parents of a brain-damaged girl known in the press as “Ashley.”
These delightful little beings will stay delightful and little forever because, in order to maximize their portability and devotion to their caretakers, their mommies and daddies have injected them with estrogen and removed their breast buds and uteri. On their blog, Ashley’s parents write: “We call her our Pillow Angel since she is so sweet and stays right where we place her—usually on a pillow.” Adorable!
The ethics debate sparked by the “Ashley treatment” rages on (perhaps fed by the suicide of the doctor who performed it). The latest—an interview with the parents—can be found on CNN.
