Narrated for Pseudopod by Jacquie Duckworth (Starts at about 6 minutes)
The second piece of flash fiction this month, and tied of second place in the Pseudopod Flash Contest.
A premature baby dies after an emergency C-section and his mother goes interestingly crazy. She comes up with a novel, rather horrible solution to the problem of her dead child.
I enjoyed this one more than Escape. It is still a gorey, gross form of madness, but for some reason this one worked better for me. Maybe it is that this woman has a better motivation for being crazy, or just that she is coming up with a more needlessly horrible solution, which still makes more sense, in an insane sort of way.
