True-to-life SLEEPING BEAUTY


Its a fact that we all needs enough sleep everyday.
But sleeping excessively was kinda creepy for me.

Some young girls dream of becoming a fairytale princess.
But for a 15-year-old Louisa Ball, this is not a just a
childhood dream.She literally slept for almost two weeks
and became a real life sleeping beauty.



This young girl from United Kingdom is said to be suffering
on a rare disorder called Kleine-Levin syndrome.
Kleine-Levin syndrome which they also call
the Sleeping Beauty disease, is characterize by recurring
but reversible periods of excessive sleep.
The sleeping episode usually last for a few days to a few weeks
