My grandfather had not only his tonsils but also 2 wisdom teeth grow back
after extraction. We always joked he must be part starfish
i have often wondered if ppl who experience this could be carriers of
polydactyly or some variation thereof... my mother had her tonsils regrow also and
my 3rd son was born w/ postaxial polydactyly. after his surgery to remove the
extra digits (their bones were already growing at a much faster rate than
the neighboring ones and would have ended up crowding and causing problems or we
probably wouldn't have removed them) when i told my mom the peds ortho
surgeon has to see us every yr or two for a while to watch for regrowth of the
removed bone/tissue, she was appalled. she exclaimed,
"ooh, how creepy! just like a lizard tail !"
to which i replied very pointedly:
"or your tonsils."
hmph!
