The boy who doesn't ever feel hungry or thirsty

5 Live In Short

Available for over a year

Landon Jones, 12, woke up a year ago with no desire to eat or drink. His parents Michael and Debbie are desperate for a diagnosis and treatment but test after test has failed to offer any hope of answers to their questions. Experts believe Landon's may be the only case of its kind in the world. Landon's father Michael Jones spoke to 5 live Breakfast, he said: "Before all this he was a normal boy, he would ride his bike, go on a skateboard.... always hungry and wanting dessert after supper" and "It's an incredible mystery, it's baffling to us". This clip is originally from 5 live Breakfast Monday 1 December 2014.
