Bizarre Facts & Grim Predictions:
I will outlive that 7-yr-old. |
I've only known one person who's made such a claim, and he died a year later in a car crash.
Life is more bizarre and grim than you can predict. |
You think I may be goading the hands of Fate by that prediction? Really, it's just a sad prediction based on facts as they stand, not a boast. Well, in case you're right, let me see if I can un-jinx myself. I hope my prediction is proven wrong, that this enormous little girl loses 330 lbs, and we both live long and happy lives... until we all die from Chinese industrial pollution. |

Yep, that same comment confused me too. The story touch you? (19 year girl) I'd love to ask that girl how it touched her.
Was the seven year old an inspiration to her by being so fat?
This story was about as touching as a mini-van full of nuns hitting a crowded pre-school adventure playground at 180mph
But seriously, the parents should be lined up and executed.

England recently almost declared childhood obesity to be child abuse, but the parents of the girl they took into custody repealed and won under the promise to put her into programs. They were justifying their going against doctors recomendations to lock the fridge and put the kid on a healthy diet by saying they didn't want to starve their 200+ pound child. 
The video mentioned that Jessica has been put into a program to reduce her weight, so I'm sorry people, but you can't chalk all this up to a medical condition.  |

She was suffering and received medical intervention.
No need to condemn the family.
Obesity is not a crime, though there's a social undercurrent toward making it so. Very un-American. Others want to consider it a handicap. But we are not talking about 200 lbs kids. This news story is about someone who can't even walk, is crippled, and as clearly and indisputably handicapped, in need of medical attention. iI's not a health issue per se, unless someone wants to make it into one. |
Not a health issue? Please explain... |
