In the United Kingdom, a young girl named Olivia Farnsworth suffers from chromosome 6 deletion. This extremely rare condition renders her incapable of feeling pain, hunger, or fatigue.
There are considered to be less than 100 people alive who have this condition, and Olivia is the only known case that exhibits all three of these symptoms.
As a baby, Olivia never ate much, never slept much, and never cried. Her mother found this exceptionally strange.
However, it wasn't until 2016, when Olivia was hit by a car and dragged on the pavement, that her mother realized how different her daughter was.
Despite the severity of the accident, Olivia got up, seemingly unscathed and calmly walked back over to her mother.
The doctors examined her and found that Olivia was perfectly fine except for some minor cuts and scratches.
The doctors believe that she was able to emerge from the accident with minor injuries because her body never tensed up because she had no sense of fear and couldn’t feel any pain from the impact.
