SHRINKING BABY MAGGIE AGNEW BAFFLES DOCTORS
May 4, 2009
The Agnew family is desperate to discover the reason that their baby girl Maggie is shrinking. So far doctors are baffled by the case. Little Maggie is losing weight and muscle mass despite having a feeding tube connected to her stomach that is pumping in lots of calories.
