They should kill her humanely. She will cry, and it'd be horrible to die of a fit :saddowns:
What about when she blinks? You cry a bit then.
It's the act of crying, as in being sad/hurt that can trigger the seizure, not the tears themselfs. Otherwise she'd be dead. Granted the article can sound a bit misleading, but I think it's pretty clear they're referring to the act of crying by "her tears".
shes dead
[QUOTE=The Epidemic;18182990]Maybe they can perform an operation on her eyes and disable her tear glands or something? :confused:[/QUOTE]
[eye functions]
tearDuctsEnabled=0
[QUOTE=varj;18183621]They just better make sure she's aware of the fact that she will die if she cries. Or atleast most probably. I think it would help.
It's gonna one helluva life..[/QUOTE]
"Daughter, if you cry you'll die"
".... WAAAAAAA :crying:"
What an incredibly strange condition.
So, let me get this straight, when she tries to cry, it triggers a seizure?

If I'm not mistaken it's not technically a seizure (although, I don't actually know the technical definition of a seizure, so I'm talking out of my ass) because it doesn't involve malfunctioning cortical neurons, but these "fits" are very similar to a seizure.
Any more details on the disease itself?
we should all cry infront of her, so then she would be sad that she can't cry, then cry!
What if she laughs so hard she cries?

It's not the tears that kill her, it's the emotion, she can die if she feels sad to the point of crying.
....Couldn't they just remove her tear glands?
that kid is going to be so spoiled geez

Maybe giving her that toy, in exchange for being nice in front of the camera, wasn't such a good idea daddy?
This is a gene I would NOT want passed on.
[QUOTE=The golden;18184019]Have you people even attended grade 4 science?
Your tear glands are what keep your eyes wet. If you remove them, your eyes are toast.[/QUOTE]
so she could get them taken out and wear a bucket of water on her face all the time
-snip-
oh my god that kid is gonna be one fucking spoiled bitch
Guys it means that if she starts crying she cannot stop.
[QUOTE=The Epidemic;18182990]Maybe they can perform an operation on her eyes and disable her tear glands or something? :confused:[/QUOTE]
I think it's more the physical action of crying and the way the body reacts to it than the salty water from the eyes itself. . . It's not like she's allergic to saline.
hey whore your mother is dead go cry in a corner
Actually if the fits are very painful to her, she will probably become conditioned against crying like Pavlov's dogs.
One child had condition where he uncontrollably vomited all the time and so doctors administered a shock whenever he did and it cured his condition.
Wonder how it would play out if it was the other way around...
I guess that means when she sees something expensive and her parents don't have the money for it they better buy it or else she'll cry and die.
[QUOTE=r4nk_;18183139]This would make a really good movie plot, 16 year old girl gets her heart broken by her boyfriend and cries herself to death
I wouldn't watch the movie because it's obviously for chicks, but you know..[/QUOTE]
Psh at least think of a manly movie plot.
The girl's tears contain enormous amounts of radiation. If even one tear falls it could blow up the entire continental United States. The evil communist villain (played by Heath Ledger's zombie) is trying to make her cry so Russia will rise up again and take over the world once the USA is left in the rubble. An elite strike team, codenamed T.E.A.R. (Tactical Efficiency Advancement Recon) is tasked with taking him out and making sure the girl doesn't cry. (T.E.A.R. members played by Nicholas Cage, Vin Diesel, and Bruce Willis).
