For many many years when I was younger I used to be so affraid that one day my bellybutton was going to just come undone and that I would be left with a huge gapeing hole there and that you'd be able to see all my blood and guts, and my stomach, I was so terrified that "the knot" would come undone cos the doctor hadnt done it tight enough, and I'd bleed to death, until one day I said something to my dad, and he told me it was impossinble, but is it?!
