Madonna and Cher will kidnap her then drink her blood.

Gabby Williams, an 8-year-old who still appears to be an infant. Two others are known to have similar conditions.

How very sad.

[SeekAndFind]

There is another rare condition and opposite called Progeria, where kids AGE RAPIDLY.

[metmom]

Her face does not really look like the face of a infant, though. It’s obvious there is some maturity going on.

There is another syndrome where the individual ages at an exceedingly fast rate, so that the people look like old men and women at four years of age.

Weird stuff.

It is sad....

Michelle Pfeiffer?

Mental retardation, dwarfism, the 40 y.o. Australian boy is blind and looks miserable - high price to pay for eternal youth.

Yes, it's called PROGERIA

[BunnySlippers]

The x-ray of her head looks very abnormal.

Does Obama care cover this,is there a numeric designator for this syndrome,what if the brain trusts that threw it together left her out, what if she lives FOREVER,poor thing.

[CGASMIA68]

Sure does,Rosemary’s Baby

[Magic Fingers]

LMAO

[Psycho_Bunny]

I thought about it once and if you had a condition where you stopped aging at 25, or something - for real, you’d better know how to keep your mouth shut.

[ClearCase_guy]

If you want to live long and prosper, drink tranya.

[Bobalu]

This one is 40

wAS THE ALIEN PLAYED BY Opie’s younger brother?

[Popman]

Eight-year-old Gabby Williams weighs only 11 pounds. The tiny girl from Billings, Mont., still looks like an infant

How many infants have teeth?

...and needs to be cared for as if she is a newborn, with her mother and father changing her diapers and feeding her multiple times a day.

I'm sure she needs daily care but, that would assume she has no motor skills at all?

[GeronL]

“never ages” is hyperbole and meant to grab attention

She is aging, she is just not growing normally

[Popman]

Eggactly...
