Question
The first of the 4 boys was badly deformed, he died before one year of age. All 4 boys apparently became severely retarded once they stopped nursing. Two lived to be over the age of 6; one died at 8 and one lived to be 12. They just lost motor functions, never did talk, just more or less vegetated. Also, all 4 boys were pale, pale hair, pale eyes too, I think. A sister of the mother gave birth to a terribly deformed boy; no other history thus far of boys dying like these 4 did.
