This is Javier Castellanos Contreras, and the story goes something like this...
Quote:A strange physical malformation caused the twins, Rodrigo and Javier of Guatemala, to be born with serious physical problems which led to an uncontrollable growth of their entire body. The twins faced an infinity of strange diseases, but Rodrigo was born with a very large rib cage, which is why he died when he was a year and a half, while Javier continued fighting for his life. Months after the death of his brother, Javier presented a mixture of different syndromes that made the young man continue to grow excessively while his bones began to twist due to their incredible size. It was thought that Javier would die, like his brother. He also had hydrocephalus, osteoporosis, and problems speaking.
Javier: "Well, here in my house, I put on the table, I clear the table, I put the clothes, I distribute them (the clothes that aren't ironed, I distribute them). I help my mom so much, and I take care of my granny."
Javier is 2 meters, 35 centimeters. He needs a special bed. An American doctor designed a wheelchair his size so that he could move around without problems.
Mother: "Javier really does not give any problems. He is very understanding, he is very intelligent, and we take care of each other."
