Dumped in a washing machine is not the way a child should start out its life, but that is exactly what happened to this newborn in Thailand.

Shop owner Sangduen Khaorueng runs a coin-operated washing business outside a shop in Krabi, southern Thailand. According to The Daily Mail, Khaorueng, 47, closed up business on the afternoon of May 3 and returned on May 6 after being closed for the weekend. She heard a baby crying and at first dismissed it as coming from a neighboring house, but when she checked inside the washing machine, she couldn’t quite believe her eyes.
