Medical Mystery: The Boy Who Couldn't Sleep

Why isn't this kid fat?

"Rhett is awake nearly 24 hours a day, and his condition has baffled his parents and doctors for years. They took clock shifts watching his every sleep-deprived mood to determine what ailed the young boy."

Here is a picture of Rhett:



If the experts are correct, this kid ought to be a blimp.

Of course, the fly in the ointment is that the experts have to be right.

Or maybe the kid is unaware of the party line, so he doesn't fatten up.

Yep, this is a real "Medical Mystery" as the morons at ABCNews have called it.

A real mystery.
