Gravel like stones have people in Yemen wondering if the girl is possessed
Sana’a: The father of an eight-year-old Yemeni girl who has recently started crying stones has urged philanthropists to help him get treatment for his daughter with the baffling condition.
Speaking to Gulf News from his small village in the western province of Hodeida, Mohammad Saleh Al Jaharani, said that the eyes of his daughter, Saadia, began producing stones 14 days ago and has spent thousands of Yemeni Rials on visits to local doctors.
“I once spent YR50,000 (Dh870) a day on treatment. She has done many X-rays in local clinics. Doctors said that they detected nothing extraordinary with her eyes,” he said.
A YouTube video prepared by the Yemeni Azal TV showed the girl’s eyes producing tiny gravel-like stones from underneath her eye lids – instead of tears.

The girl also cries tears and her eyes do not produce stones when she is asleep. Most of stones come out in the afternoon and the evening. Stones do not hurt and she lives a normal life.
A father of 20 children from two wives, Jaharani said that Saadia’s eyes sometimes produce as many as 100 stones a day. “None of my other children has ever gone through the same condition.”

Ouch!!
I’ve seen this before, news story probably 20 or so years ago, that girls eyes I believe had something to do with the salty nature of tears. Her tear ducts were producing too much of something I believe. Probably the same thing or something similar here.
Damn crazy people thinking the poor girl is possessed.
SMH
Wow! She cries granite, quartz and sedimentary rocks. If she has no other recourse in life she can always open her own gravel pit.
Father of 20 children from two wives; now that is a story.

if the stones were similarly colored that would be one thing, but the fact that this started right after she got married and it doesnt happen at night kinda tells you that its bs. there is a chick (cant remember where from, spoke spanish though) who’s eyes produce a stone-like substance thats the color of thick finger nails and has to put up with it 24/7, you can really see the pain she is going through if you look up the video. this arab chick though, i wonder if her parents or husband put her up to this? and for what?
