Girl, 5, eating herself to death (1 Viewer)

[muscleman09]

An obese five-year-old Indian girl suffering from a suspected hormonal imbalance is eating herself to death, doctors fear.

Suman Khatun eats over 10kg of rice, 24 eggs, six litres of milk and 5kg of potatoes in one week — and even asks her neighbours for food.

The girl, who weighs 75kg and is 1m tall, is believed to have a malfunctioning pituitary gland. Her family is too poor to travel to Calcutta for treatment.
"We can not feed ourselves or our other two children, let alone ourselves ... when she is not fed she cries, shouts, screams and has even thrown rocks at us," her mother, Belly Bibi, said.

Can this girl not survive on daily portioned sizes of food?

And how hungry can a 5 year old be to actually throw rocks at their parents?

Did you even read the article? Her hormones are screwing with her mind. Like how your hormones would give you a boner in the most inconvenient place when you hit puberty.

How the fuck is this girl eating so much food when her parents are too poor in the first place?

Wonder how much the sugery would cost? compare it to the food bill they are footing

haha yeh, are these people in extreme poverty though?

Eventually they will resort to abondoning her (like a whale abondoning its calf when it has matured)

Or they will kill her and eat her (like the japanese harpooners)

btw, the analogy of a whale has NOTHING to do with this poor girls size.

Yeah, I was thinking that myself. Over 10kg of rice, 24 eggs, six litres of milk and 5kg of potatoes in one week? Her parents can't even feed themselves. Where'd she get all that food from?

In her circumstances, I think she's a lost case. Maybe if someone set up a donation appeal there might be some hope in treating her. I'd be willing to donate a few hundred for her.

throwing rocks??..child obviously needs some disciplining..

they probably mean that they cannot feed themselves as well as that girl
