A 19 Years Old Ajifa Khatun Trapped In The Body Of A 2 Years Old toddler

Ajifa Khatun is 19 years old, but is physically and cognitively similar to a two-year-old. She weighs 1st 3lbs and must be carried everywhere and still needs to be spoon-fed  by her mother Apila, 42..

The teenager was a healthy baby when she was born in 1994 and it wasn't long before she started to walk and talk. However, her development then stalled. Doctors initially told her mother and father, Sekh, 52, that Ajifa would start growing again.
 Doctors have blames cancer and a hormone disorder for her condition but her family still do not know why Ajifa's development appears to have stalled.
Although scientists suggest she could have Laron Syndrome Rare genetic condition that has affected just 300 people worldwide.
Too much of the hormone can lead a person to develop breast, prostate or bowel cancers at an early age, meaning people with Laron will never get cancer, or diabetes.

 'Ajifa is likely to maintain her childlike features for the majority of her life. See more photos below...
