The doctors said that he wouldn’t live longer than two weeks after being born. Last month, Larry Prout Jr., from Howell, Michigan, had his high school graduation photos taken, and he will celebrate his 19th birthday later this month.

Larry has been called a “miracle” boy for having survived so much despite an extreme medical condition that has affected his body. He was born with a defect called cloacal exstrophy, causing split genitalia and every organ to grow outside his body except his lungs and heart.
