eh...

How do they not know what is wrong with her?  Something seems "off" about the report.

To me she looks like she has a severe case of dwarfism and autism.    I'm not sure how you they can spin that into "a baby that doesn't age".

Autism is what I was thinking. A most severe case.

She doesn't look like normal baby.  If I had seen that woman strolling her baby around and I looked at that girl... my first thought would be, "what condition does that baby have?..."   

I'm not saying that to be cold.  Just my interpretation.  Rather sad

I agree. SHe doesn't look like a baby. Poor kid though. I mean that's horrible.

A bit misleading to represent it as a baby that doesn't age.  People who have watched "Benjamin Button" will allow themselves to assume it's some kind of miracle... when in reality it's actually a very sad and disturbing story.  Found it on wikipedia.  Can't say I'm surprised that she's had a history of various problems leading to her current condition:

Quote
Brooke was born on January 8, 1993, in Baltimore, Maryland, one month early and weighing only 1.8 kg (4 lb). She was born with a rare condition called anterior hip dislocation. Her legs were pushed forward awkwardly. Early in her life, Brooke underwent surgery to correct this. At this point Brooke appeared to be a normal infant.[3]

In her first six years, Brooke went through a series of medical emergencies from which she recovered, often without explanation. She survived surgery for seven perforated stomach ulcers. She suffered a seizure followed by what was diagnosed as a stroke that weeks later left no apparent damage. At age 4, she fell into a coma that caused her to sleep for 14 days. Then, doctors diagnosed a brain tumor. Later, physicians noted that Brooke opened her eyes and had no tumor present. Brooke's doctor said the source of her sudden illnesses remains a mystery.


Sad.  Sounds like she needs some new doctors maybe.

It didn't help that I watched it in the middle of the night. I almost killed myself sprinting up the steps as fast as I could.
