That would not be carbon natural. When people were walking behind wagon trains to settle this country, a kid with a fake illness would have been just so much buzzard bait. Real people made this country not some sorry ass druggie.
I hear the Trojans used to do that. If a baby looked sickly they’d leave it out to be taken by the scavengers.
You do have to admire the kid’s tenacity, though. Apparently he kept right on faking seizures while being pumped full of narcotics, muscle relaxers and sedatives, and kept at it until he finally got some pot out of it.
