When Messi's parents were informed that their Son would have stunted growth due to Growth Hormone Deficiency(GHD)1, My parents were being lied to by my doctor that I would grow taller than them. Lionel Messi got treated and became one the greatest footballer of all time while I became a dwarf with life threatening consequences. I'm a year older than Messi, By Age 11 he was diagnosed with GHD2 as he hasn't grown over 4’7” since age 9.
