自闭症男孩4年未进食

Four-year-old boy Daniel Harrison is so frightened of food and drink that he hasn't eaten for four years, the Daily Mail reports. His problem began when he suffered a severe case of acid reflux as a baby. Because he also suffers from autism, the memory has stopped him from eating anything solid since. Daniel's phobia means the only way of feeding him is through a tube in his stomach. Experts have so far found no way to help Daniel. "There is nothing medically stopping our son from eating. It is in his mind, but there has been nobody yet that has managed to help him overcome that", his parents said.

据英国《每日邮报》报道，英国4岁的小男孩丹尼尔•哈里森因恐惧食物和饮料，4年来从未吃过任何东西。他的问题始于婴儿时的一次胃酸回流；由于患有自闭症，从那以后，痛苦的记忆使得他不能吃任何固体食物。丹尼尔的症状意味着，他必须通过胃部插管输营养液来补给身体所需。专家称他们找不到任何办法帮助丹尼尔。他父母称：“目前没有任何药物可以医治我们的儿子，因为心病还须心药医，可是没有任何人能够帮助他克服心魔。”
