27 Year Old Man/Child Hasn't Reached Puberty- Oh Dear

16 Year Old Man/Child Reached Puberty at 27 Months

That's rough for the young man who hasn't reached puberty. I think i would have gone to the dr before I was 27.

1) WTF does the attractiveness of the doc have to do with anything?

2) Lock yourself in a room streaming "Home Improvement" and never return to civilized society.

Dr. Eric Swalwell?

R1- That is not the same individual as the man/ boy I started this thread about.

R4 Turn and cough

... and he got fucked over by puberty.

A guy in my high school hadn't gone through puberty by the time we graduated (1982); I remember as a senior he still had a tiny peepee with no hair. Also no musculature and his little voice. We were 18. He tried to enlist in the Air Force, but they rejected him. I went off to college and didn't see him until the next summer. He had been to an endocrinologist who started him on some sort of growth hormone. He was going through puberty at 19, but also underwent tremendous growth – so much so that tendons in his legs separated from bones and muscles. He was in traction for almost six months.

At age 21, he finally enlisted in the Air Force. He had grown from 4'10" at 18 to 6'2" at 21. We went swimming once that summer and I took note of the fact that he was now taller and had more muscles, but he still had a little dick. Poor guy.

He retired from the Air Force as Chief Master Sergeant at 51, was promptly diagnosed with colon cancer, and died shortly thereafter. To this day, I am convinced that aggressive use of growth hormones in the early 1980s doomed him.

R8- Poor guy

R8 did he have any other choice? At least he lived manhood for 30 years.

R3 is MARY the Idiot.

Good question, R10. I don’t know. He married a woman in his 40s; they had no children. They came to our thirty year HS reunion, but barely interacted with others. Probably due to his delayed maturity back then, he could be a jerk and alienated most of our classmates. At the 40 year reunion, when his (and others’) death(s) was to be commemorated, nobody wanted to say anything about him, so I did — just recalling some funny things from when we were very young.

One would think that the healthcare system in the military would have detected his cancer before it was too late.

If he died from colon cancer, it means he was probably suffering from it for several years. Once it begins developing it can take several years before it's detected. Mid- to late-40s would be awfully young to get screened for colon cancer with a colonoscopy. It's likely it wouldn't have been detected until he was experiencing symptoms which can be at stage 2 or even later.
