Lion Face-Like Syndrome

A man called Yang Hui Ming, suffered from this strange disease since he was four years old. At this young age, a lump as big as a mung bean grew on his left eyelid. Later, this lump becomes bigger and bigger when time passes. When his age reached eight, this lump had already reached a diameter of 3 centimeters. Not long after that, his left forehead protruded to form a knot making his appearance looks like a lion resembled face.

Premature Senility

At a glimpse, these kids seemed like a 90-year-old elderly people. Scientist believes that the occurrence of this disease is due to a minor error in the human genetic code. Most of the children who are born with these scary diseases may die at an early age of 13 years old. The rapid death is due to the rapid physically aging process that takes place in parts of the human body. There have been reported 48 cases of these rare diseases around the world.

Cushing's Syndrome

This four-year-old Xiao Xin has suffered a strange disease of “Cushing's syndrome” that causes an increase of 3 to 4kg in her weight. Sometimes, within a month, her weight can increase as much as 8kg. Up to now, this four-year-old girl has her weight as heavy as 70kg with her height of 86 centimeters. Her weight is said to be two fold of the normal obese children at her age.

Blaschko Stripe Disease

It is indeed a strange and appalling disease with the entire body covered with these rare stripes. This disease was first found by a German Dermatology expert in 1910 while he was dissecting the human body. The stripes establish hidden pattern within human DNA. Many of the congenital and hereditary skin and mucous membranes diseases may show the appearance in accordance with this pattern and finally forms up stripes on the human body.

Human Wolf Syndrome

A kid who suffers from this disease will grow into extremely big size, with a dark appearance skin; abundant hairs grow elsewhere from parts of body, particularly near the face until the face is fully covered with variety sizes and textures of wolf-look-like fur. This disease is called human wolf syndrome as a sufferer looks mimicry a wolf that you come across.

Human Hippo syndrome

A 14-year-old Haitian girl has her face growth with a rare huge tumor weighing 7.7kg, resulting in a severe swelling deformed appearance. She just seems like a “hippo” and thus it is called a syndrome of hippo.

Elephant Leg Syndrome

A 32-year-old woman has long been suffered from a syndrome called “elephant leg”. Her infected left leg is 3 fold as large as the normal people's leg. She always experiences occasional pain on her left leg, and sometimes some sticky mucus flowing out from it. As a result, she often has a high fever as a complication triggering by this terrible syndrome. Over the years, she has to survive with an extremely pain life that doctors have not ever found out its causes.

Elephant Arm Syndrome

This syndrome appears as a large black hair mole which is rarely seen and happened as compared to a normal black hair mole which is relatively small in size. It is said to cause by the error of gene while in its decoding stage. As this 4-year-old boy is undergoing a physical developmental stage, and thus the black hair mole that grows extensively on his left arm has not been able to catch up the surface tension caused by the normal skin, and will therefore affecting the normal growth of his left arm muscle.

Ichthyosis

His eyes are being burdened and crushed by both upper and lower stiffed muscles into two black empty holes. Starting from his neck, and further extending to his hands, all parts are completely covered with overlapping layers of fish-like-scales. There are many tracks of blood flowing out from the bulging areas. He has no complete fingers of ten but all his fingers tend to bend, imperfect and cramped as though a bundle of meat ball. How appalling when looking at them!

Severe Skin Peeling Syndrome

A 13-year-old Vietnamese boy, Nguyen, has suffered from this strange disease over the years. His skin is always in a state of cramping just like he is wearing a tight cloth. Each time when winter time arrives, his skin will peel off massively and thus causing bleeding. As his facial skin is always experiencing intense tension, and therefore he cannot even has his eyes closed while sleeping.

I have seen a few of the people you have listed here on a TV special. It isn't until we see something like this that we realize how very lucky we are. The children with Progeria and the girl with Human Hippo syndrome touched me the most. I remember how happy the kids with Progeria were in spite of knowing their fate and how the Haitian girl cried because she wanted so much to be like other kids. How unbearable it must be for the people you listed above and others like them.

Chan, you presented this article very well.
Thank you.

Those pictures are bizzare.Those of us that are normal have enough reasons to thank God.
#9 by jo, Feb 10, 2008
i guess we should consider ourselves blessed because this isn"t an affliction on our children or ourselves but we must always remember they are humans and have feelings and no one should ever make them feel bad. these are not bizzare, they are some kind mix-up, that could happen to any of us. God would most likely want us to count our blesses and never say that we are normal and they are not.

Might as well go kill yourself if like that.

Whatkind of life is like that when people are a afraid to go near you, look at you with pity, fear, disgust... sigh. They have no future and who wants to take care of them besides their father and mother?

Would any of you willing to marry and take care of these pitiful individuals? I think very very few would consider that option...
