Beginning at age three, joints and muscles ossified, leaving her immobile from age fifteen until death after eight more years. Her mind remained intact, and observers note unprecedented bone formation throughout: spine fused, ribs ossified, chest a solid bone box, limbs like one large bone. Her coffin and grave were prepared under family privacy amid concern over curiosity seekers.
