There are currently 5 families stuck in the Congo for over 80 days waiting to bring home babies that are legally theirs, but the Congo government refuses to release exit papers for them because of past adoption corruption.
In the UK if you lose your spleen you have to take anti-biotics for 5 years.

Correction: When you die your hair does not grow for a few months longer. It's actually dehydration and bodily fluid loss from decomposition. Same for nails and receding gums (looks like teeth have grown). This is one of the reasons why in old Victorian times they accused the dead of being vampires.
I have a morbid fascination with decomp, anthropology and entomology as a forensic science. I am a huge fan of The Body Farm.
