The 12 Year Old Girl Who Can't Stop Sneezing

Did you see this on Today this morning? No, not Ann Curry's new tattoo which says Brad's girl, but a 12 year old girl who caught a cold a few weeks ago and is now sneezing 8-12 times per minute all day long and doctors are clueless as to how to stop it.

Poor girl! Now all she needs is that drug that causes you to have an orgasm every time you sneeze!

Bless you

It seems to me that her sneeze 'switch' is stuck. They will probably end up giving her brain drugs next.
It's like those people who can't cure their hiccups.

I dunno. Years ago the law firm I worked for was defending a hotel against a woman who fell in their hotel and injured herself in such a way that if she wore underwear, if she walked or danced, if she sat down in the wrong way, she would have uncontrollable orgasms. It apparently wasn't as great as one might think. One of our crass associates suggested that instead of suing she should pay the hotel for services rendered, but he was booed out of the lunchroom.

That sucks. They said she doesn't sneeze when she sleeps, I wonder if it could be a breathing related issue that is relieved when she is lying down. Sort of like snoring.

Vasovagal nerve reflex....whenever I get nauseous I sneeze, which is absolutely horrid if I'm hungover, as I recently found out. She needs to see a nerve specialist.

This is why she doesn't sneeze when she sleeps--exactly the same as the hiccoughs.

I saw that and immediately thought "tic". That poor, poor, poor girl. I'd be so miserable if I were her. Hope she gets help soon.

I'm a little squicked out by her sneezing into her sleeve. Someone hand the kid a tissue...STAT!

Seriously though, I'm wondering if a shot of botox to her nose would help.

Majik, I am so relieved to see your post. I sneeze when I get really hungry too and thought I was weird. What did you do to take care of it?

Majik said...

Altar Boy....I smoke weed, clears the nausea right up. :)

It's just a short in our wiring...some people sneeze when they see the sun--it's not the sun, but the constriction of the vessels that does it. Same idea.

off topic -she looks like the singing Hanson brother. No offense intended, he is very pretty too.

Aaaw...she's so cute and so good about it. Poor girl. No one even bothers to bless her anymore.

She will go insane. Wow.

Ann Curry's new tattoo?
Where is Ann Curry's new tattoo?

I didn't see it. Are you BS'ing me? I think she is a rediculous interviewer.
