I need to get something off my chest... I can't say too much since I'm not a fly on the wall at my sisters house BUT I have noticed some things about my youngest niece that worry me. Not too long ago it was discovered that my niece was having some issues health wise and they aren't exactly sure what's going on. She was passing out in class and she's losing a lot of weight, she also has a very high heart rate. At first they thought there was something wrong with her heart but realized that wasn't an issue and started to think something was wrong with her major blood vessels in her neck. I haven't heard anything more about her but in all the photos I see on Facebook, she's just losing more and more weight, she's in cheerleading and her uniform barely fits her. She looks like a skeleton and she's only 12. I'm irritated because she is still going on with all her competitions and she's on the varsity team with high schoolers. She is pushing herself so much and it cannot be good for her, but she just keeps going. I don't really know if it's by her choice or my sister's. My sister has always pushed all her kids in their sports to extremes and I always thought it was ridiculous... I'm just worried about her and I know it's none of my business because it's my sister's life and her family... but she is my niece so I at least have a right to worry.

My son was 11 almost 12 and started losing weight, couldn’t stay awake, started vomiting profusely and it turns out he was diabetic and it was something I never would have thought about

I think they ruled out diabetes but I really don't know for sure since I barely talk to my sister and we don't see eye to eye on much.

First off, you are an amazing and caring aunt sounds like and second, you should express your concerns to your sister. Tell her you are just concerned.

Thank you, I appreciate that. It's just that my sister won't listen to a damn thing I say. She's much older than me as well so she doesn't see a reason to listen to me about anything to do with parenting

well she sounds irresponsible honestly.

Her thyroid hyperthyroid or Graves’ disease does this it’ll start out every now and then episodes and then it will attack 24/7 until she gets treatment if it’s what it is.

Some of this happened to my sister. She had an eating disorder. She was 13 when she was diagnosed.

My sister had an eating disorder in 7th grade. Similar things happened - lost a lot of weight, would get light headed, high heart rate.

Maybe she is over doing it for the cheerleading and that's why she lost so much weight

So rapidly though?
