13 Year Old Has Rare Disease That Makes Her Look Decades Older

Posted by 3Mumm on February 2, 2010 at 9:58am in Mr Bruns 360 Message Board

13 year-old Zara Hartshorn of England or something like that has a very rare disease called lipodystrophy. Her face appears decades older than she really is. The disease is hereditery and her mother has it. Zara has six sisters, three of which have the horrible disease. The children were all concieved by multiple partners, and the family is on wellfare so it seems that cosmetic surgery is out of the question. Zara is ridiculed at school and stays indoors as much as possible. Check out the video here

It is definetely a terrible disease. The kids at school should know that she can't control what is happening. They should not be making fun of her.
