Baby Suffers From Rare 'Aging' Disease
Did you see this? Link to story on AOL
If this was my kid I think I'd skip schooling and make sure they got to do everything their heart desired. It must be so hard knowing that your child is only going to be in your life for a short time.

Is that the disease that movie with Robin Williams was about...Jack, I think it was called?
I agree - if we were faced with that diagnosis I would make sure he experienced as much as I could possible share with him. So sad But he looks so happy...what a sweet little boy.

My moms friend at works sister had this. She was actually considered ol when she passed (19) but her body aged to be like an 80 yr old. They said she went through puberty, got her period and progressed but never grew out of baby form. I believe when she passed she was still in a crib.
