Doctors Baffled, Intrigued By Girl Who Doesn't Age
phyrebyrd writes "Brooke Greenberg is the size of an infant, with the mental capacity of a toddler. She turned 16 in January. Brooke hasn't aged in the conventional sense. Dr. Richard Walker of the University of South Florida College of Medicine, in Tampa, says Brooke's body is not developing as a coordinated unit, but as independent parts that are out of sync. She has never been diagnosed with any known genetic syndrome or chromosomal abnormality that would help explain why. Brooke's hair and her nails are the only two things that grow, Howard said. 'She has pajamas and outfits that are 10 or 12 years old,' he said."

According to the Bible (100% factual as we all know) Adam and Methuselah lived between 800 and 970 years.
If you look at the bible scientifically... you're stupid.
But after the flood no one live as long.
Maybe there is a leftover piece of really good DNA that has survived and she is lucky to have it.
Think of the changes she will live to see.

I didn't write that, so please don't attribute it to me. It would seem that someone else loves you enough to try to replicate your dense and unreadable writing style, APK, but it wasn't me.
If I want to say people don't give a shit about you, I'll state it under my own userid, rather than under protection of an Anonymous Coward moniker. To whit:
You followed me over here in a failed attempt to troll me on a completely unrelated topic... I'm not following you around on slashdot, I truly don't give a shit about you and your twaddle.
(You can quote me on that now.)
