BRAVE TEEN DIES Tragedy as teenager born with no limbs and forced to live in a PLASTIC BOWL dies on Christmas Day *** A TEENAGE girl who was carried around in a plastic bowl because she was born with no limbs passed away on Christmas Day. Brave teen Rahma Haruna spent her life in chronic pain because of the unexplained condition that took hold when she six months old. The tragic 19-year-old, from the city of Kano in north west Nigeria, reportedly died at home after suffering a short illness. Rahma made the news earlier this year when images emerged of her being carried around in a plastic wash tub. Reflecting on her daughter’s hardship, mother Fadi said: “From six months when she learnt how to sit that was when it began. Rahma, who aspired to become a businesswoman by opening a grocery store, also leaves behind her loving 10-year-old brother Fahad. Her family are said to have doted on her to make life as comfortable as possible. Rahma and her family remained in the dark about her mysterious condition their whole lives. Attempts to secure a diagnosis failed. Doctors were baffled and some even diagnosed her as having been struck down by a jinn - a supernatural being in Islamic mythology. Despite her punishing disorder, Rahma remained positive and hopeful throughout her life. | The Sun via IFTTT
