A picture that has gone viral on various social media platforms and received mixed reactions from netizens shows how a 20-year-old lady has given birth to a baby who looks very old and weak as an 80-year old.
Commentary surrounding this image has it that the lady gave birth just a few days after her beloved grandmother passed on hence the baby is reincarnated.
A health professional has also confirmed that although the baby was born a few days but the ossification test done on him shows that he’s aged 80.
This incident happened in one of the village(s) in South Africa.
The cause of this child’s look has scientifically been attributed to a rare health condition named Hutchinson-Gilford progeria.
Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome is a genetic condition characterized by the dramatic, rapid appearance of ageing beginning in childhood.
