My physical therapist/Doctor wife, after viewing Koch’s ferrotype of Henry, made a couple observation’s. She said Henry had torticolus, which is a condition caused in-utero, when a fetus is immobile and within a smaller uterus, causing his neck to be cranked over to one side. Also, a side of his face was pressed up against the uteran wall with quite some pressure. Thus, causing less oxygen to the face and creating some bilateral facial dissimilarity and weakness within one side of his facial muscles. Overall, she explains, that Henry’s entire body was bilaterally dissimilar as one leg appears quite shorter than the other. Essentially, he has a crooked face and a crooked stance. We are all bilaterally dissimilar, but, she says Henry was quite affected by this. This seems to makes since, as his mother was a very slight built woman, and this condition seems to affect those fetus’ within dainty women.
