Question: A man embalms his 2 year old daughter!?
My mom just told me that she saw on the Discovery channel or something that their is a tomb where tourists can come and there is a little girl in a glass case or something and her father embalmed her when she died because he couldn't bear the thought of what death would do to her!. Please tell me where to find a picture or a video or something!!Www@QuestionHome@Com

You might be talking about little Rosalia Lombardo, who is buried in the Capuchin Catacombs in Sicily, Italy!. Read about her below; there's also a poignant photo:
