“Seegmiller is 4 feet tall, weighs about 90 pounds and has blonde hair and blue eyes”
Ok, so whatever agency released this must’ve mistyped 4ft. 15yo, 90lbs, 4ft? sorry but no. Wild guess is its supposed to be 5ft and some clown made an error.
If i wasn’t so tired i’d have picked up on it sooner. 4ft 90lb would be a dwarf.
ridiculous
I was very close to a family who had a child w/ cf. I knew them quite well and i know how important it is for these patients to to their daily therapy routine and take all their meds every day. It really makes me quite sad and i hope this girl will learn to take care of herself. Could be very bad circumstances around this. For some reason i find it very upsetting.
LOL ! get back on your meds Bob your talking to yourself again
