I’M JUST NOT IN THE MOOOOD FOR HUMANS



A four-year-old girl in Britain who had never been able to speak due to a rare genetic condition is now chatting up a storm with animals. Rose Willcocks had never said a single word to her parents and was diagnosed with a form of autism thanks to her inability to interact with humans, but in the company of animals she turns into a different person entirely. "There was something about animals that made Rosie connect,” said her mother. “We could barely get her to make eye contact or moan or groan but here she was, chatting like an old friend to the cows and horses." The family now has plans to go to the United States for therapy which will include swimming with dolphins in order to help Rose continue to improve.
