Collecting fame as the mother of the tallest child in the world? Excellent. Taking care of him? Not so much.
Jacob ate nearly twenty times as much as he used to to support his prodigious bod, so his mother was constantly shopping with baskets full of cereal, bread, lunch meat, potato chips, etc. Jacob's clothes were handmade by a tailor in San Francisco, but due to her fees, Jacob was restricted to five sets of clothes, three sets of pajamas, a sweater, socks, size 48 shoes, and a pair of swim trunks. Jacob's mother always a thin wallet, so she hired a babysitter and got herself a job for support. She wasn't fond of her new life.
Jacob had hardships as well, always having to bend his knees while walking around his house, being taller than the ceiling. He had to walk on his hands and knees to squeeze through doors. He was constantly picked on, for some said that he didn't belong anywhere, an alien.
Jacob sat in his custom-made chair and poured an entire box of Cheerios in with a full gallon of milk. Using a cooking spoon made to contain a cup of food, he ate with his siblings, 14 year old Dalton and 8 year old Ruth. After he finishes breakfast his mother has his lunch ready for him, a collection of food that a normal adult would take days to eat. Jacob, while bending down, puts on his sweater and backpack and heads outside. How does he get to school?
