If "rotting corpse" is too macabre, how about "decomposing body"? Or "decaying remains"?

I think of it this way, if she were the child of my sister, my friend, my co-worker or anyone I knew personally, could I refer to their child in that manner?

100% I know I couldn't.

Re: The latest on Jahi McMath

I hope this family finds peace some day.

I can't imagine making that kind of choice but that's their decision.

At this point, I think if the family had evidence she was alive, they would have presented it.

I haven't faulted them, but like I said, it's all about the evidence. It would be very easy to have Jahi's physical condition verified by an independent medical expert.

I have to agree. It would seem they would want to let the whole world know about her miraculous improvement with proof of it, if for no other reason than to share their joy.

The things they are reporting about her improvement are not small and insignificant.

I don't think it's at all unreasonable for people to question these reports since there is no proof of it.

Agreed, I still don't know what the mother meant by 'blossoming'.

To me the word blossoming implies she is entering puberty:/

There is no evidence to support the idea that she is alive.

She can't be alive. She isn't blossoming either.

Re: The latest on Jahi McMath

I don't think she's alive, either. And I'm in total agreement with those who have posted that if she were blossoming and doing well, the family would be eager to provide images to support that. Actually, forget the pictures. We haven't even heard from one medical professional that it's true. Why is that?
