  • i'm 4'10 fully grown and im not a dwarf!

    being short is not bad!

  • Wow. I have SOD and so I'm missing my paturatary gland. I've managed to grow to be 4'11, but I only weight 100 pounds. My bones are also very frail. I understand how the parents are feeling. My parents were confused for a long time too!
