My college roommate was the middle child in a huge Irish Catholic family of 11 children. One time she was asked to take care of whichever child was the current baby. The baby fell off the bed and was knocked out.
My roomate was terrified that she'd killed the baby, so she hid the baby under the bed. She figured her mom had so many children that she'd never notice the missing baby.
Fortunately, the baby was fine, and woke up squalling. So my roommate was convinced she had the power to bring the dead to life again.
