The Girl Who Did Not Age

I just learned today of the death of the girl who did not age.  The girl Brooke Greenberg was born prematurely and grew to the age of five years old when she simply stopped growing.  I am not sure what to think of this mystery, for it is a mystery.  She had many scientists jumping to study her in hopes of finding a 'fountain of youth' in her genes, and perhaps they will.  I am not sure if that is something that we will ever be able to master though.  Hopefully, we can find a way to cure this incredibly curious Syndrome X, since ageless existence does not appear to last long.
