Papky

Zhang Ruifang a 101-year-old Chinese grandmother from Henan Province, grew a horn on her forehead, above her left eye a year ago. Now there’s another growing right above her right eye. Her youngest son, a 60-year old-man, said that the second horn was growing faster than the first one. The children also worry that they could inherit the bizarre abnormality from their mother.

At first a pimple like growth appeared on her above her left eye, which Zhang ignored. The growth then developed into a 2.4-inch horn similar to that of a goat.

Initially she was quoted as saying: ‘it was a nuisance sleeping and so on, but now I get people visiting me all the time bringing me food and gifts and asking to take my picture.’ In fact, she’s so fond of her horns that she’s refused offers from doctors to remove them.
