I just googled a particular genetic disorder. I wasn't expecting anything lurid. Google image results at the top turned up something I did NOT want to see, and I'm no stranger to medical gore or rotten.com.

I won't describe it. I will tell you that what I googled was the alternate name for trisomy 13. I strongly recommend that you NOT google this (NB: trisomy 13 does not turn up the same results) unless 1) you have image results turned off or 2) your idea of a good website is rotten.com.

I confess that I couldn't resist sneaking a look.

I'm not sure whether to be horrified or relieved that I thought 'Is that *it*?'.

I'm assuming that I saw the picture I was meant to see.

If there was only 1 eye involved, then yes.

That's the one.

I guess it doesn't push my particular 'buttons' :-)
