The picture was taken a few days before Aliayah disappeared. An Aunt was in the picture and cropped out. The picture was on grandma's phone. Did someone borrow grandma's phone? Didn't grandma say she only heard Aliayah on the phone, but hadn't seen her recently? Where was the picture taken? So many questions...
If my child fell and got a bruise that horrible, I'd take her to the Dr. to make sure she was ok. My kids are country kids. We don't have tv, only allowed on the computers on the weekend. It's a miracle one of them hasn't broken a bone between sledding accidents, bike accidents, climbing trees....all the things kids do when raised on a farm. But dang, a bruise that bad on the face? Packing them up in the car and heading to the dr's office to get checked out!
