For Halloween we bring you a tale of Little Ichabod and the Headless HorseKid...
Here at Cabbage Patch Rehab, we are not above a decapitation now and then, especially at this time of year. With multiple factories in Asia making Kids during the
heyday, the quality of plastic for the heads varied widely. Some have developed a yellow or gray pallor. For instance, see these two victims Kids.
A single plastic zip-tie holds everything together and with that gone these two experience a disembodied sensation. hahaha
This comes in handy if you need to do a Freaky Friday body swap. Sometimes a body's fabric is beyond repair, and we can match that Kid with a headless one. Here's a jaundiced soon-to-be-headless Kid.
These Kids are remarkably resilient. He managed to keep a smile on his face the whole time.
His bald friend needed a new body because all the soft sculpture in the legs had come undone during the years. Even a trained orthopedist wouldn't touch this case.
We reversed the process by using a new zip-tie from our favorite medical supply store--Home Depot.
We married up the head and its new body and cinched everything tight. We wouldn't want this Kid to...lose his head! hahaha
The result is one healthy, happy Kid instead of two sad ones. As we always say, "We can rebuild them."
Happy Halloween!
