.......Valdermort


 When Voldemort tried to kill Harry as a baby, and the killing curse rebounded upon him, what happened to his body? Do we know? John Gebhardt's wife, Mindy, said that this little girl's entire family was executed. The insurgents intended to execute the little girl also, and shot her in the head...but they failed to kill her. She was cared for in John's hospital and is healing up, but continues to cry and moan. The nurses said John is the only one who seems to calm her down, so John has spent the last four nights holding her while they both slept in that chair.. The girl is coming along with her healing.
He is a real Star of the war, and the hero of peace.
This, my friends, is worth sharing. Go for it!! You'll never see things like this in the news. Please keep this going. Every person can make a difference in the life of someone even if it is one little girl.
After Voldemort's transformation his body was not as human anymore, so my guess would be that his body disintegrated into ash or whatever and his soul we know became parasitic and latched onto a host, Professor Quirrel's body. Then after Quirrel died and was of course no longer able to be a host I believe Voldemort's body became like the infants body we read about in DH. Furthermore we know that Wormtail cared after the Voldemort's body and it became a full body after Wormtail performed the ritual to bring him back. This is part theory/part fact, nothing to quote me on.
If Voldemort had been human, then his body should not have been damaged, for it is implied repeatedly that the curse does not leave a mark on the body. That was what puzzled the muggles so much. Anyway, because Voldemort's body and soul was not truly human after his Dark transformations, I don't think we can predict with much accuracy what really happened to his body. We can only guessThanks for the responses. I agree that we can only guess about what happened to his original body. Maybe JK will address it in a future interview or in her Encyclopedia.
JKR has never said, so any answer is speculation, but here's my take on it. The killing curse would normally detach the soul from the body and leave the body otherwise untouched, but because of the dark magic that Vodemort had already used to tear his soul into pieces, the rebounded curse had a much more disastrous effect. Hermione remarks at one point in DH that a Horcrux is the exact opposite of a normal person and destroying the 'body' of the Horcrux destroys the soul that it holds, unlike destroying the body of a person, which merely releases the soul to move 'on'. My speculation is that when the killing curse hits Voldemort, it destroys his body because most of his soul is no longer present to occupy it. As a matter of fact, it destroys his body with such explosive force that it blows the roof off the Potter house! The bit of his soul that is left attaches itself to Harry's scar. The only part of Voldemort that is left is his consciousness, which he relocates to Albania because that's where he created one of his Horcruxes and he feels 'at home' there.
