the little mermaid girl

Shiloh Pepin is a mermaid girl but is one which I will consider special and not different! She is a living mermaid and is a source of inspiration about life. Why a mermaid? Well because even though it is a disease called the mermaid syndrome, she is a fighter and she is special in the way that she accepts the way she is.

Shiloh Pepin is a 10 year old girl that looks like a mermaid at first glance. She actually suffers from a very rare disease called Sirenomelia.she is one of only six people in the world living with Mermaid Syndrome.Despite her limitations, Shiloh is planning for the future just like any other 5th grader. "I feel like everything's possible," she says. "I want to have a normal future like everybody else. … It's hard to decide what I want to be when I grow up. There are so many choices. An actress, or a princess. Anything I want to be."
