Baby girl born with ‘werewolf syndrome’ dubbed ‘child from heaven’ by royals

A 2 year old baby girl, of which a rare one syndrome he made his body covered in hair, “bent” the Malaysian monarchs – who called him “the child from heaven”. “I’m still speechless,” his father told Newsflash child, Roland Jibai, for the royal appointment, which took place on September 11 in Bidulu, Borneo. The child, named Adik Missclyen, suffers from a congenital strain of hirsutism, which the National Library of Medicine defines as “excessive hair growth all over the body.”

Also known as “werewolf syndrome”, h hirsutism they are extremely rare, with fewer than 100 recorded cases from the Middle Ages to the present day. Little Antik was also born without nostrils. However, the baby’s discomfort did not stop her from meeting with Southeast Asian leaders. The little one and her parents, 47-year-old Jimbai and 28-year-old Theresa Guntin were among those who lined up to see the King Yang di-Pertuan Agong Al-Sultan Abdullah Ri’ayatuddin Al-Mustafa Billah and his wife, Raja Permaisuri Agong Tunku Azizah Aminah Maimunah Iskandaria, broadcast by New York Post.

However, the formal meet and greet took a different turn after the king and his queen stopped to take pictures with Addick and her family. “It was worth the wait when Sultan Abdullah, Tunku Aziza and their children met our family and took pictures with Misklien,” Jibai said. “I’m incredibly happy that we had the opportunity to meet the King and Queen,” he added. The biggest honor, as the proud father said, was that they named little Adik “anak syunga”, which translates to “a child from heaven”.

“THE King he told me to take care of Missclyen as she is God’s blessing,” said Jimbai, who hopes his family can meet the “royal couple again if possible.” This celebrity photo was a far cry from how little Adik is usually treated, according to her father. He claimed that strangers often gave his child strange looks, with trolls even calling her a “baby animal”.

“At first, we were hurt and stressed,” Jimbai said with pain. “We felt weird and avoid taking her out in public, except for hospital follow-ups.” She added, “We were so afraid of what people would say.” Fortunately, little Adik’s ‘Wolfman’ disease does not affect her health, although the family takes her for regular check-ups to make sure. So far, there is no cure for hirsutism. Sufferers simply try to keep the perennial mane at bay through bleaching, trimming, shaving, lasers and other hair removal methods.

This is not the first case of hirsutism, which can either appear at birth or in adulthood.
