He had six fingers on each hand. Five normal looking fingers, then a really small finger (about the same size as a persons smallest toe) next to his pinkie finger. They even had little finger nails on them.Grimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05369930481493283849noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-784285653010648547.post-21371390733602945132010-10-18T10:40:05.869-04:002010-10-18T10:40:05.869-04:00If the guy in the report had Marfan's, I don&#...If the guy in the report had Marfan's, I don't think the fingers would even have been mentioned.

Duh me, must be the fumes of spray adhesive getting to me. <br /><br />I saw a case of Marfan and in person the fingers looked way freaky. I think you have to actually see it in person.
