PROGERIA

 In 2008 there was Brad Pitt’s Movie The Curious Case of Benjamin Button. In the movie they showed the story of a person who was born old, and with age he gets younger!!!

But is it possible in real life?

A person aging goes on reverse mode?

It’s not possible!!!

But there is a similar disorder which is called PROGERIA.

In this children age rapidly till they are 2 years old, the child seems normal. But after that, they start aging rapidly, hair falls out, skin gets drier, bones become brittle, and by the age of 5 or 6 years old, the child looks like an old person.

Normally people with this disorder live till they are 13 years old.

There was a nice Bollywood movie  by Amitabh Bachan named PAA.

Progeria is also known as the Benjamin Button Disease because it is similar disorder to the one shown in the film.
