Lauren Johnson is a typical 12-year-old girl - except that she can't stop sneezing.

It is so bad that she sneezes up to 20 times a minute, or 12,000 times a day.

The non-stop sneezing began two weeks ago when Lauren from Virginia in the U.S. caught a cold.

Lauren can't go to school and is even struggling to eat.

The only relief she gets is when she falls asleep each night. Her condition has left doctors baffled.

During a five-minute interview on the Today Show in the U.S. Lauren sneezed hundreds of times, her speech interrupted every few seconds.

The 12-year-old - dubbed the 'Gesundheit Girl' said: 'I can't stop.

Ah-ah-achoo! The girl who sneezes 12,000 times a day has doctors baffled

Lauren Johnson, 12, can't sit still for more than a few seconds without someone saying 'bless you'.

It wouldn't be too bad if she didn't sound like a dying cat every time she sneezed.

More like "Bfffrlrrl! The girl who sneezes.."
 
more like... "aah-bullshit"
that shit is annoying though...

Why does it look so fake?

Dunno. But the chances that any 12 year old would willingly seperate themselves from their friends from school and put themselves into discomfort for 2 weeks sounds far too improbable.
 
This is worse than the man who's had hiccups for thirty years.
 
uhm. its not like serious. sneezing. i sneeze even harder sometimes and pop my ears. it sounds like .. throat clearing.
 
I've bet it's a muscle contraction or something that keeps her triggering the sneeze. It's like a loose nerve cell.
 
A sneeze is 'a symptom consisting of the involuntary expulsion of air from the nose' so if the air is from her nose, then it's sneezing.

    I am working on getting access to the old news portal under a different URL for those that would rather use that for news before we get a different news view.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Easily done

  • The Helper The Helper:
    https://www.thehelper.net/pages/news/ is a link to the old news portal - i will integrate it into the interface somewhere when i figure it out
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Need to try something
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Hopefully this won't cause problems.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Hmm
  • Ghan Ghan:
    I have converted the Headline News forum to an Article type forum. It will now show the top 20 threads with more detail of each thread.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    See how we like that.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I do not see a way to go past the 1st page of posts on the forum though
  • The Helper The Helper:
    It is OK though for the main page to open up on the forum in the view it was before. As long as the portal has its own URL so it can be viewed that way I do want to try it as a regular forum view for a while
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Yeah I'm not sure what the deal is with the pagination.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    It SHOULD be there so I think it might just be an artifact of having an older style.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    I switched it to a "Standard" article forum. This will show the thread list like normal, but the threads themselves will have the first post set up above the rest of the "comments"
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I don't really get that article forum but I think it is because I have never really seen it used on a multi post thread
  • Ghan Ghan:
    RpNation makes more use of it right now as an example: https://www.rpnation.com/news/
