Whether it’s a pair of twins conjoined at the head or a baby born with a third leg, the medical world is full of anomalies. Just ask any doctor who’s been in the field for quite some time, and they’re sure to have at least a dozen stories of eye-opening medical cases. Like this one, for instance…
A Michigan mother named Darci Brown Elliot knew almost immediately something was different about her newborn son, Broc. When doctors finally figured out what exactly the problem was, it put the Elliot family in a very unusual position.
As of 2019, Broc, at 21, stood at 7’8″ tall and weighed 500 pounds. He was disappointed about the constant struggle with growth, especially because he’d heard so many stories about medical quick fixes to problems like his.
