But since her admittance to the hospital, it has been said that she has made tremendous progress.

In just a few months, she's apparently grown three inches and doubled in body weight.

Now, due to how confined she was in her room, she was often curled up in the fetal position and her arms and legs were extremely tight because she was, you know, like this all the time because she just laid there unable to do anything else.

So, you know, her arms and legs were unable to fully straighten.

So I'm guessing that's where a lot of her height gains came from because she didn't actually grow that much.

but she was able to straighten out from gaining that mobility back.

She's also regained a lot of muscle mass and strength.

In fact, it was said that her eyes lit up when talking about all the food options she got to choose from at the hospital.

She has no underlying GI issues that would cause her to always throw up her food, no pickiness, no oral motor or swallowing concerns.

She eats her three meals a day and enjoys most foods, even hospital foods, which is a lot because when I was in the hospital, I was in the hospital for three days.

I survived mostly on insure drinks because I really hated the hospital food.

I'm so picky that I wouldn't eat a lot of what I was given.

True Crime with Rachel Shannon
SICK & TWISTED: Morbidly Obese Family Starves & Tortures Child Nearly to Death

I did forget to order most of the time so I was given a lot of food that I really didn't want so I will say that but I drank a lot of the insurance drinks because I did not like the hospital food.

True Crime with Rachel Shannon

Hospital food is gross so the fact that this little girl was eating three meals a day of hospital food that does say a lot.

It says that she is not

All that picky.

She may be less picky than me.
