    she lives right down the street from me in MD! shes a cool kid.

  6. JacK says:

    i saw her on TLC a few months ago.
    i wonder what she is thinking all these years lol.

  7. Emory says:

    Woah, she lives in MD? where? Wonder if she lives near where I used ot live

    So she doesn’t age…but she has tons of medical problems. Hmmm..as people live older and older due to medicine and such they get more nasty side effects it seems. Forever young, I’ll never take that vaccine. Aging is wonderful.

    She has an eye bigger than the other… o.O

    Interesting story!

    Strange indeed. All i can say is disect her and see what’s the secret…

  11. I’m not a biologist, but I play one on T.V. but I’ll be marrying one in October, and I think the language used in this piece is possibly a little… Wrong.

    She doesn’t age? How can that be at all true? Of course she ages. If she’s had all of the complications they mentioned, then she must be aging. Hell, if she needs to eat, then she must be aging. I think what they mean to say is that she doesn’t GROW.

    I should also point out that these are just my thoughts and not my fiancée’s. I’ll have to see what she thinks when she gets home.

    Why all her physical ailments getting worse, her parents seem mighty happy with the attention. Pathetic.

    If she starts talikng soon it will be increadible, maybe she has delayed growth and learning abilities. This kid will out live everyone – She looks 1 quarter of her real age – so extrapolate that and she will be 140 years old and look 35. Brings a whole new meaning to middle-age. lol

    I hope all her medical problems are resolved and she grows up to be a healthy 250 year old.

    IRT Mark/Guy above me
    Looks a quarter of her real age my arse. 3 year olds don’t look or act like that. Were you overbabied when you were 12?

    I just saw two more Doctors names (shown on the Windows Media that I’m listening through). Dr. Alex Omelchuck, & Dr. Michael Schlacter. Glyconutrients. Our body gets 2 sugars through diet and needs 8 which are not easily available through diet.
