Before i start writing anything, i must apologise to all the compassionate young bloods of my kind who feel it a regret that such diseases have come up. i also feel the same, since i am a human too. But lets accept one thing that these diseases are inevitable and we must learn to accept them, be open to them, and find ways to cure them, also, learn something from them.
For those who know little or nothing about progeria, its a disease caused to new born children and they develop symptoms of old age at a very small age, since 7 months. it can vary from person to person. it shows symptoms like hair fall, cardio-vascular diseases, rheumatoid arthritis, balding, thinning of skin, wrinkling of skin, mental retardation, dwarfism, falling of teeth or other old-age related dental disorders, fatigue, loss of eye lashes, hip dislocation, joint stiffness, nail defects (as in old people), and immense body weakness, unable to walk, run etc.
so these children look old, and face old-age poblems since a extremely small age. now, u get a picture.
i feel, its a wonderfull disease. it not only shows a peculiarity in the nature laws but also, defies all the misconceptions that we have in the word "destiny".
A rare disease it is, caused due to genetic mutation in the "aging gene'. my questions is, what is the cause of this mutation? this disease was never seen so many years before. why has it come in the modern age?
My thesis to this is, due to various pesticides we use, we dont know its long term effects, they have not been studied in span of long time, also it can be due to the concentrated drugs which people consume. as we know, drugs are either chemicals or super concentrated extracts of plants, both VERY harmful to the body. the effects of these drugs on the consumer's body has been studied, but has the effects on the further generations been studied? the effects of various chemicals, chemicals in air, chemicals we consume, or the damaging of the ozone layer on certain people or, the combination of few of these things can be the possible causes. Also, the eruption of certain gene altering viruses can also be the possible cause.
Imagine u, having to be born as a old person, without enjoying the happiness of youth.
In our growing ages, we have learnt, to eat specific food, the dieticians tell us, that tomato and cucumber and good for the skin, certain masage to the face can delay or reduce wrinkles, certain foodstuff can prevent heart diseases or certain exercises can prevent arthritis. A motorcycle undergoes wear and tear after running for a long period of time. then HOW, CAN WEAR AND TEAR OCCUR IN THESE CHILDREN WITHOUT WORK?? if they havnt worked their joints, how can they get arthitis? if they never ate any cholesteral rich food, how did they get cardiovascular diseases? if they never tired their teeth how did they fall?
the old age diseases are clearly due to the wear and tear of the body, also called as "degenerative diseases". when there has been no degeneration, how can they get the symptoms of it? if the gene is altered to cause old age, how did the body know how many wrinkles to cause or if the heart disease in a person shud b pesent or not?? because all these diseases rnt present in all old people.
My only conclusion to this is, out destiny is marked. no matter how much lotions we put, or how many tomatos we eat, we r destined to get as many wrinkles in our old age, as we were destined to. as our genes have saved in their memory. if we r supposed to get arthritis, or cardiovascular diseases, no matter what we eat, it is destined to be there. and we cannot pevent it.
This disease, according to my hypothesis, is the error in the making of these children by god. It also shows us many mysterious things about creation and destiny. The more you think about it, the more amazing this disease will seem.
