Meet 19year old Toddler: Shares some touching words

Honestly i dont know where to start now on this one, but this little teenage girl says she doesnt need sympathy. Ok let me just start and give you guys the gist anyhow. her name is Girija Srinivas, she is 19, and was born with a condition that prevented her from growing, leaving her just two and a half feet tall.
Continue after cut.. really encouraging


From what i read ehh, her head is so heavy when compared to her body and  she is even unable to sit up and doctors have said that there is a chance she could suffer a fracture if she tries to rotate her neck quickly.chai!!
Her condition means the teenager struggles to even do the most basic household chores by herself.
But against the odds, and with her friends and family behind her, Girija is carving out a career as an artist.
She said some things that really got me amazed:

"I don't like anyone pitying me, I have shown everyone what my capabilities are," 

"My mother helps me with eating and other normal things. But while I'm painting and drawing I need nobody's help. I do it myself.

"I sell five to six paintings per month, which makes me between 8,000 and 10,000 rupees (£86-108).

"I have to look after my parents and I need to have the financial capacity to do that."

She also said: "I don't want to be popular because of my rare health condition but I want to be famous someday for my art.

"I do not want sympathy, I want recognition."

"I have an aim to achieve more in life. It's my dream to go abroad and achieve something big."

Girija could never go to school because of her condition, but she says she is not too fond of studying anyway.

"I am not sad for not going to school. I don't care about it too much," she said.

But like most other girls her age, the teenager's time - when not drawing - is taken up watching TV and playing with her pet. 

Girija has been on the receiving end of cruel taunts about her size, but says she has a large circle of friends in her neighbourhood.

"People say many things about me, laugh at me and call me mad. They even wonder how my father is looking after me," she said. "But my family members treat me as a normal person and I have many friends of my age.

"They never tease me that I am a toddler.
