I decided against it because I would not want to rob the doll of its "life" here after mine ends.<br /><br />Limbe Dolls - If there is an afterlife and if you choose to take your dolls with you, you will be well served.<br /><br />dbg Black Doll Enthusiasthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07534871309015210903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6047557606653771556.post-47834168534329907452012-09-21T16:44:28.658-05:002012-09-21T16:44:28.658-05:00Thanks for sharing the story of the Little Black D...Thanks for sharing the story of the Little Black Doll.

But, I could swear that for some reason I thought that human servants and favorite animals were also entombed alive with their masters to serve them in their afterlife. I can vaguely see that happening now that I write that sentence so that was probably in a Cecil B Demill movie. Never mind.<br /><br />But I believe in reincarnation so I find this all very interesting so thanks for posting it!Muffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06121187068323359131noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6047557606653771556.post-65928584442948736412012-09-21T14:38:05.954-05:002012-09-21T14:38:05.954-05:00Thanks for the info.
