She Was Born In Brazil

Maria Audenete Ferreira do Nascimento was born on May 7, 1981, in Ceara, Brazil. This makes her 37 years old, but she doesn't look a day over nine months old!

She Was Born With The Condition

Maria suffers from the rare and severe case of hypothyroidism at birth. This left her with a significant deficiency of thyroid hormones.

The most annoying bit about Maria's condition is that it could have been cured or it could have been managed, at the very least, if she was given the correct medication at birth.

About The Condition
