I appreciate that the article names her dwarfism as Achondroplasia, but it seems hard to accept. She doesn't have the typical facial features or the disproportionate limbs. Also a little checking on the internet suggests that the typical height of someone with Achondroplasia is 4 foot.

I admit I made my own diagnosis based on her proportionate stature and diminutive height. However I'm willing to accept I was wrong, as she seems confident of a long life and would surely have been advised otherwise if she had Primordial Dwarfism. I wouldn't be confident about her ability to bear children however, pureply from a logistics point of view.

The pic is deceptive. She'd be about as tall as her classmates if she were wearing shoes like them.

It's photoshopped. I'll be back with a recipe later.

A big heart in a tiny girl. What a great attitude.

Since she's in high-school, I'm betting she's been in that bag. More than once.
