What's wrong with a teenager sleeping and not breathing

4hw.org: people can not eat for five days or drink water for two days, but you can't stop breathing for a minute. Breathing is the most basic physiological activity of all creatures. However, recently, a British teenager has a very rare strange disease, and he will stop breathing when he sleeps. If he doesn't find out, he is afraid that life has already stopped. He is fighting with death every day. Here we are Let's see what happened!

A British teenager was born with a very rare disease, which caused him to stop breathing as soon as he went to sleep. He was fighting with life every day. He was given oxygen for a long time to maintain his life. I was told that I could only survive for a few weeks, but I didn't expect that under the careful care of my parents, the boy is now 18 years old, which is totally beyond the expectation of doctors.

According to foreign media, 18-year-old Liam Derby shire was born with a rare disease, central hypoventilation, which caused him to stop breathing as soon as he slept. It is reported that only about 1500 people in the world suffer from the disease, and the worst situation of those with mild symptoms may not be able to sleep well, while the situation of Derby is serious.

Because of the constant loss of breath, Derby had to sleep in a medical bed for the rest of his life, supplying oxygen to his lungs through an oxygen supply device. In addition, all the time there must be family members on the side of the guard to avoid any accidents.

Dr. Gary Connett said that in addition to breathing problems, Debbie shire had cancer and intestinal related problems. It's not easy to survive to this day. (this article is edited and collated by sihai.com, reprinted and noted with source, original link: http://www.4hw.com.cn/life/)

At the age of 18, his parents were surprised by his success in fighting cancer. Although they are not sure how long their children can live, and have spent countless medical expenses, they hope that their son can live a normal life as much as possible, and even more miracles happen.
