Kristen Rawlings: 我最初注意到我的儿子Bobby走路姿势很奇怪，后来他的腿部疼痛加剧，牙龈也开始出血。我带他去看了很多医生，做了各种检查，但一直没有找到病因。我感到非常焦虑和无助，甚至被怀疑虐待儿童。我详细描述了Bobby的饮食习惯，他几乎只吃巧克力牛奶和饼干，不吃水果蔬菜，这可能导致了他缺乏维生素C。 Dr. Hall Johnson: 作为医生，我接诊了Bobby，发现他有贫血、腿部无力、牙龈出血等多种症状。我排除了白血病等严重疾病，最终通过核磁共振检查发现他的大腿骨外层增厚并与骨骼分离，结合他的饮食习惯，我诊断他患有坏血病。我给他补充了维生素C，他的症状很快就得到了改善。这个病例非常罕见，因为在现代社会，坏血病通常只发生在营养不良的老年人或精神障碍患者身上。

One day at the park, a mother notices her young son is walking strangely – almost like Frankenstein. At first, she writes it off as an oddity. But soon, her son’s legs stop working altogether… and the rest of his body starts shutting down with them.
