Life with Prader-Willi syndrome?

Life with Prader-Willi can be a difficult ride. Individuals with prader willi have a hard time ever feeling full. One of the scariest things is that someone with prader willi can actually eat themselves to death if they do not control themselves. Individuals with prader-willi have been known to self mutilate (not all individuals, but some do). If someone with prader-willi chokes it is possible that they can throw up their insides.

A lot of individuals with prader-willi are obese because of the fact that they simply never feel full. There is a place that specializes in Prader-willi somewhere in Florida. The best thing to do if you know someone who has Prader-willi syndromo is support them, they really do have to struggle every single day with diets. Watch the kitchen..i know it sounds inhumane but in the long run it is for the best for the person with prader-willi, remember they can literally eat themselves to death because they never feel full.
