Progeria

[Jello]

Is there anything sadder in the world? Just watched an Outside the Lines on ESPN about this little boy who has the disease but loves baseball and playing baseball.

There something incredibly heart breaking about a child's mind trapped inside a deteriorating, old person's body. If you dare, search "progeria Ashley" on youtube and see if you can watch that without getting at least a little choked up.

Yep. That's the oldest living person in the world with the disease I believe. He's in his early 20's I think.
