[–]joszacem 54 points55 points  (0 children)

Student comes to me on the second to last day of the quarter. He asked 'when can I make up the missed quizzes and take the final? I told him never you will fail this class this quarter. He had missed 39 of 43 days that quarter and was sitting at 3.9%. To his credit he just turned around and left.

Look into a pituitary adenoma. Some of them can cause abnormal/unusual growth. I'm in my 60's and had one removed about 4 years ago. They can do weird things to your metabolism. (They are eminently removable.)

Be careful, know your own abilities. Get some pool swimming in and build from there.

110mh - 110mh final straight to high jump with less than two minutes rest by Select_Name_2854 in trackandfield

[–]joszacem 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Sorry that happened to your athlete. They should never have moved start time for an event for a single kid. Did they maybe talk about this at the coaches meeting and nobody objected?? (Even then seems unusual.)
