17-Year-Old Girl Can't Handle Her Nuggets

A few weeks ago, Stacy Irvine, a factory worker from Castle Vale, Birmingham in Great Britain, collapsed after having severe trouble breathing, and was rushed to a hospital. Since she was two years old, Irvine has eaten nothing but chicken nuggets at every meal and has never eaten any fruit or vegetables. Her unhealthy diet caused her to have anaemia and swollen veins in her tongue. Despite the warnings of doctors and family members, Irvine plans to continue eating this way: "McDonald's chicken nuggets are my favorite. I share 20 with my boyfriend with chips." Her mother is very concerned for her daughter, and says that she's tried several times to wean her daughter from the food, even by starvation, but without success. She says, "She's been told in no uncertain terms that she'll die if she carries on like this. But she says she can't eat anything else... It breaks my heart to see her eating those damned nuggets." Stacey is now at home and on her way to recovery. Doctors have prescribed her with heavy dosages of vitamins to make up for her severe lack over the past 15 years. Hopefully Irvine's desire to live will outweigh her desire for processed, fried chicken.

  4. If the parents didn't feed her McDonalds from the age of 2 maybe she wouldn't be so addicted...

  6. So if she is on a school trip or with a friend's family, she makes them get her nuggets? I don't understand how she could be able to get chicken nuggets for every meal.

  7. 15 years is a really long time to live through that diet. Not just the unhealthiness of the nuggets but also the lack of variety in food. And how could she make the choice to eat nothing but chicken nuggets since she was 2 if her parents are so against it? And how is she not spilling out of those clothes??

  8. WHAT? Is this legit????! How can she be alive? I mean 15 years is a long time to be on this kind of diet. Parents can control what a 2-year-old eats. This is the parents fault and is a form of child abuse! Not feeding a child or feeding them only McDonalds chicken nuggets. Same difference. This is crazy.
