Natalie risks life daily with illness.
Natalie is only 3 years old and has has a VERY rare illness that causes her to eat non edible objects like plants and bricks!!!. She is in risk of being poisoning and almost died after eating a light bulb. The illness called pica leads her to eating rocks,sticks,plants and bricks. Her mum said ' she can eat a brick like some one eats a chocolate chip cookie'.
They have been trying to stop her eating these things but the craving is to much for her to handle. Her parents are worried that the next thing she eats may kill her. The were really scared when they found out she eaten a light bulb. Her mum said ' I had put Natalie to bed and i was in the kitchen doing the washing up when she walked intot he room and held up a small piece of wire. Her mouth was bleeding badly and then i knew suddenly what had happened. Natty had eaten an light bulb, everythin except the wire. I was terrified and all i could think of was the dangerous glass in her body'. Natalie was taken to the hospital to have surgary to get the glass removed from her stomach. Her parents are really happy that she is still alive.
