I’m 19 But People Say I Look Like An Old Man | BORN DIFFERENT

19-YEAR-OLD TikTok sensation Harry was born with an ultra-rare genetic condition called neuroblastoma amplified sequence (NBAS). The symptoms of the condition are wide-ranging, as Harry's mom Rebecca told truly: "It affects many, many aspects of his body - he's registered blind, he's a type 1 diabetic, he's autistic, he's got brittle bones as well." In addition, Harry's immune system is severely compromised, so he sits through a one-hour-long infusion once per week to help fight infections and keep him out of hospital. Rebecca and Harry's dad Christian have provided 24-hour care for their son throughout his life, helping him with everything from getting dressed to preparing food - but since he turned 18, Harry's independence has become a key priority. With an unrivalled passion for dinosaurs and animals, Harry was adamant he wanted to share his encyclopaedic knowledge with the world - and while Rebecca was fearful of the response from people online, she embarked on the journey into TikTok with Harry. His account is now closing in on a million followers and his comments section has been filled with overwhelmingly positive feedback, but some comments have caught the family off guard - particularly around Harry's perceived age. As Rebecca explained: "People have said they can't tell whether he's five or he could be 55. He's quite a gentleman, he's quite old-fashioned." The family haven't let this phase them at all and they are now hoping to use their platform to raise money for research into Harry's condition to help other families in the future. Because the condition is so rare - "almost impossible, in fact" as Harry describes it - funding has run out and the family have set up a fundraising page in the hope of resuming research as soon as possible. In the meantime, Harry is preparing to start farming college later this year - a "perfect" fit for such an animal lover - and regardless of what comes next, Harry knows that being "unique" is something to be proud of above all else.

"It's nature and there's nothing you can do about it," which could apply to both Komodo dragons and his condition . He's got a very endearing personality and I love his sense of humor !
Komodo. Not “kimono”.
@@micacam2684 Okay noted !
@@celestialcircledancedw 😭 I thought it was kimono too
@@adxre0 The funny thing is that I didn't type this myself but rely on dictation software . I am a massage therapist and would rather not overuse my hands and wrists in my free time besides which my spelling unaided is truly a lost cause 😁
What a delight!! Ask Harry a question and be prepared for a straight answer. No messing around there! 😁
He looks like a grown. Man …….
Good mums are one of God’s great blessings 🤍
Good women in general
AND Dads
These are the type of videos I like to see on this channel! Not some plastic girl who has an only fans and dating 5 men and 2 husbands
He is such a sweetheart.
Aww. My heart. What an amazing mama, & son!! I LOVE their beautiful, sweet, unconditional bond. & Harry, you’re a Beautiful, Brave, Strong, Unstoppable, Inspiring WARRIOR!! GO harry, go!! Keep shining like the precious, Beautiful Gem you are Harry!! 💎 🥰💜💜
I swear with her accent I thought she said, "Do you want to go feed the dogs?" I was thinking, "Do they volunteer at a shelter? That's an odd animal to "go feed"." It made so much more sense when I saw ducks! 😂 Anyway, cute guy and great interview! Wish the family well!
You’re not the only one. I hear accents totally different too.
I thougth the same thing
I thought the she thing too! Lol
Harry has taught me more than my school teachers.
He is unique and it certainly does make him special. Animals are the best ! Have fun at College.😊
I’m a Yank, I love Harry’s proper British accent. He Certainly has More than his share of Challenges and health problems. He’s Brave and Inspirational. I feel sorry for such a young man having So much on his plate. God Bless
As a fellow person with a disability that impacts everything that I do, I’m so grateful that there’s still people out there that believe that folks with disabilities in different ways of processing, the world deserve to be able to do what they’ve been sent here to do what they’ve been created for.
I think he looks adorable. He doesn't look old to me. And I love how supportive his mom is for her son.
Just like the film “Jack” with Robin Williams.
He's so cute. Love him.
He looks like Daniel Radcliffe
They’re both British (which most probably know). I also noticed brits share common unique facial expressions that the rest of the world doesn’t really use. It’s subtle, but it’s there.
Prayers-up, for that awesome little man!! I hope that he lives a Long happy life! God Bless!🙏🏼✝️👑🫡
🙏
Good Luck in College my Buddy! You are Number 1 son!
He's so cute.
Stay kind. Keep on shining like you do. ❤️Harry

Following Harry on tik tok has been the best. Never skip a video, I’m glad he’s on this earth and enjoying his life to the fullest, very inspiring to me 🙌🏼
That is the only easy part of Autism the structure because my son is Autistic, and his behaviour is very erratic and it is very stressful to deal with.
Such a great Momma - so happy for him that he has such great support.
He’s got such a great spirit …
Harry’s mum is great, she cares for him so well!

Good morning Harry, I saw the picture of the Boa Constrictor and decided to follow you. I am a snake keeper. Do you like snakes?

He seems like such a nice gentleman. It would be nice if he finds a companion to share his life with because unfortunately his parents won't be around forever to help him.👍

“Roughians and thugs.” He’s unbelievably cute.
Nice Video ❤️❤️❤️
Great mom does alot
I pray the Lord heals your infirmities but otherwise i think you are quite perfect for the hearts that are meant to love you. Go get em champ.
At first I thought he was a primordial dwarf but rather he actually has a much more rare condition it sounds like. Doesn't have the characteristics of a primordial like squeaky high pitch voice, his is surprisingly deep, also seems to be a little bigger than a primordial. I wonder how much his condition shares with primordial dwarfism. He seems pretty intelligent in the way he speaks and conducts himself. Though his mom said he only gets along with her friend's 7 year old daughter. So he must be more immature than what's being shown. Other than that he seems like a cool guy 👍
Harry is the best
I love harry
thats my dinosaur brother right there
My cousin's also autistic and he loves dragons also.
Damn that's rare
His mum is alright
This guy looks like your typical Hollywood director
Oh! I love dinosaurs!!
He's a boss
He definitely looks just like his father
