The Woman Who Sees Everything Upside Down

Well, top of the morning to you and a Happy St. Patrick's Day! An assortment of green virtual treats awaits though I draw the line at green coffee - just the usual delicious Arabica. But I am going to turn your world upside down today...or at least tell you about someone who sees life that way.

Bojana Danilovic, a young woman from Serbia, suffers from a strange condition that has left both doctors and scientists baffled. The 28-year economics graduate sees everything upside down.
 
Experts from Harvard University and at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology who examined Bojana Danilovic say she suffers from a rare brain condition called ’spatial orientation phenomenon’. In layman’s terms that means her eyes see things the right way, but for some reason her brain changes them. 

Although there have been some similar cases recorded in history, Bojana’s case is truly unique. Everything in her life has been backwards, even the way she came into this world – feet first. Her parents remember that when she first started crawling, she would always move backwards, and when she began to walk, she did it in reverse. 

The remarkable young woman says her mother had to take a leave from her job in order to teach her to walk like all the other children. It took a lot of practice, but she finally managed to walk forward. Only this was only the beginning of a very unusual life.

Now isn't dat a foin t'ing, then. Saints preserve us. Imagine going through loif seein' t'ings bass ackwards and topsy turvy. Why you wouldn't know whether you were comin' or goin' now would ya?

See ya, ey!
