That tall at the young of an age?  Good luck to him, but I doubt he's got the healthiest future ahead of him.

I just hope that he can walk without a cane when he's thirty.

Tell me about it.  If it's not an enlarged heart, it's bound to be something else.  I hope they have him doing everything possible to keep his joints free from future injury.  If he can stay healthy until age 24 or so, he could be set for life.

In one of those articles it mentions that his father, still alive presumably, is also very tall.
At least a goldfish with a Lincoln Log on its back goin' across your floor to your sock drawer has a miraculous connotation to it.

I believe Gandhi is the only person who knew about real democracy — not democracy as the right to go and buy what you want, but democracy as the responsibility to be accountable to everyone around you. Democracy begins with freedom from hunger, freedom from unemployment, freedom from fear, and freedom from hatred.
