Archie is just two years old and weighs almost six stone, or 84 pounds. He has a rare genetic disease called MOMO syndrome, which belongs to the family of overgrowth syndromes. This disease has only been diagnosed in four cases in the world. The name is an acronym of the four primary aspects of the disorder: Macrosomia (excessive birth weight), Obesity, Macrocephaly (excessive head size) and Ocular abnormalities.

@TheSucculentSquirrel How did she insult Archie? She pointed out the importance of being held as a child, how physical connection is needed. Also hermaphrodite? Isn't that an offensive word towards intersex people? I really don't know what word you were looking for there.

This breaks my heart. I have a sibling who suffers from a rare autoimmune disease so to a point I relate, but I can't fathom just how cruel Archies disorder is not only cruel in terms of its life shortening prospects and the suffering he goes through, but the pain the parents are put through because people are uneducated they see this boy and it's an automatic assumption that somehow you're a bad parent. It's just an extremely horrendous and cruel disease to not only the child effected but the families who have to watch them suffer.

Four months after giving birth to my son I started rapidly gaining weight. I gained over 100 pounds in around 8 months. I was accused of being lazy and overeating. I had postpartum depression and they said that depressed people eat too much and wouldn't believe me when I swore that I barely ate. I started having severe pain in my joints and eventually couldn't walk without assistance. Their only answer was that I needed to eat less, exercise more and lose weight. And I was told to see a psychiatrist. It took 6.5 years to be diagnosed with Cushing's disease caused by a tumor in my pituitary gland. I was soooooo happy to hear that I had a brain tumor. Because there was a reason. But I wish I would have known then that I would never feel normal again.

It is very clear that Archie is loved. He doesn't cry, he doesn't throw tantrums - their kids - their family is LOVED by her. Even with the family issues, they can look back on this journey, knowing they walked these steps together.

I know a lot of people in the comments are looking for updates. I couldn't find much, but Archie was definitely alive as of 2018, when unfortunately his mother passed away. Per her obituary, she had moved to the United States in 2004 (not too long after this documentary was made) and remarried in 2005. At the time of her obituary being published in 2018, Archie is listed as having survived her and still living in England. He would have been 16 at that time. I hope he is doing well.

Macrosomia is so rare and only discovered in the early 90's. Rare conditions do not have research grants leading to treatment, sadly. Archie is such an adorable boy having to endure his condition. His parents love him so much.

Unfortunately a lot of people don't know some medical condition exists till it happens to you or someone close to you. I was diagnosed with a intracrainal hypertension. No idea what it was when I was diagnosed. Basically symptoms mimic as if I have a brain tumor. There's no cure just what my doc calls temporary fixes. Luckily doesn't shorten my life as long as its being treated.

Why do the English 'still' use a STONE, to describe a person's weight, versus kilograms? In fact, they also convert stones to pounds, instead of kilograms. What the heck? Even in ancient times, stones had various weights, but now, a stone = 14 pounds; ergo 6 STONE = 64 pounds, whereas someone weighing 69 pounds is called 6 stone 5. Wth?
