British boy Dexter Cahill may be the angel baby in the eyes of many parents Because the little guy doesn't cry when he knocks. But for his parents, this is what worries him. Cahill does not feel pain. Don't say that he bump into it. He does not feel pain or cry.
Cahill is 4 years old on 25 July this month. Several fractures have been encountered since birth, one thumb, one palm, and one left foot, but his parents do not know how it happened. Mother Lindsay recalls the daily mail to the British Daily Mail that early this year, when Cahill learned the alphabet song at the nursery and sang the letter D, the little guy jumped up and was sitting on the floor, and it didn't come up. "The teacher called me. I cried and rushed over to see what he was going to look like. He sat on the ground with several toys and asked the first aid doctor what was in the medicine box." Hospital diagnosis showed that the little bone fracture of the left leg tibia, "when the bone, he does not even need to use anesthetic", as long as a lollipop.
experts say Cahill suffers from hereditary sensory nerve root lesion type four. This is a kind of congenital painless, the incidence rate is only 125 million. Lindsay and his wife found abnormalities when they were 4 months old at Cahill. The little guy was having long teeth and grinding his tongue out of blood. He often has small wounds after his teeth. Another year and a half later, the couple confirmed that Cahill had a rare genetic disease.
"people think he's a superhero," Lindsay said. "But he's really fragile, and one day he might have appendicitis, because he won't feel pain." Lindsay hoped that Cahill would know how to protect himself when he was an adult, but there were many injuries waiting for him.
