Hello. Greetings from Boonary TV. In today’s topic of bizarre news we’ll see, “The woman with the 7-inch neck”. Who is she? What’s her life story? Let’s find out.
This woman’s name is Liudmila Titchenkova. She is from Crimea, Ukraine. She is 25 years old. This girl is unique. Her height is 6.6 feet but what’s fascinating is that her neck is 7 inches long. After she turned 10, Liudmila’s parents noticed that their daughter’s body began developing at an accelerated growth rate. She was taller and had longer arms than other children of her age, but of particular concern was the length of her neck and abnormal curvature of her spine. As it got to the point where Liudmila began feeling embarrassed to go out because of her appearance, it was then that her parents took her to the hospital, what happened next? Take a look.
When Liudmila was taken to the hospital, she was diagnosed with a disease called Marfan Syndrome. It’s a genetic disorder which she has by birth. It is due to this disorder that a person has elongated limbs and they do not have healthy bodies but are extremely thin and Liudmila had this since birth. At the age of 14, she was already 6.5 feet in height. Her sister also is naturally tall although she doesn’t have this same disorder. So at least Liudmila had company and didn’t feel alone. Initially, she felt very shy to be amongst people but then later she changed her outlook. She gained confidence and was ok in looking different from others. She started looking at things positively. Because she’s so tall, she says that she can clean the house roofs. All others have to climb on a chair to do this sort of cleaning but for her it’s very easy. She can easily hang photo frames on the wall. No need for a stool or ladder to climb on. She can even hang curtains easily without any hassles. No need to climb at all, but life isn’t easy as we think. What problems does she have to face? Take a look.
Sometimes people take photos of her without her permission. They do it behind her back. It is annoying to her. Once she was travelling by a public transit. She got a seat and then a man came and sat next to her. This man was naturally very short in height. He wanted to know what’s her secret for being so tall.He said that all in his family were very short. At first she thought, he was joking but he really meant asking. She didn’t know what to reply in that awkward situation. After all it was a genetic disorder for her. She has been through ups and downs in her life but it was her family that has helped her cope with this disorder. Her family has supported and encouraged her and hence today she is happy with how she is. Liudmila took this positively as she knows that not everyone has a long neck as hers. Each one is different and unique in their own way. Her life-story teaches us that no matter how our body is, whether we have a big nose, large ears, protruding teeth or some disorderly jaws, it’s just natural to our body and that’s how we are and we can be happy. There’s nothing to be ashamed or discouraged about. Be confident and stay happy.
