Little girl’s rare condition sees her eat WALLS & furniture as mum begs for help

Jordanna Tait, 25, says her daughter, Dolly, has been on an NHS wait list for nearly a year to see a child psychologist after suffering from a rare disease which sees the family “struggle every single day”

A mum has been left pleading for help after her little girl’s rare condition has seen her eat her way through the home – including munching on walls, furniture and TV remote.

Exhausted Jordanna Tait, 25, said she has to constantly monitor her two-year-old daughter Dolly to stop her eating potentially dangerous items around their house.

Paediatricians have suspected the youngster to be on the autism spectrum, and suffering from an unusual eating disorder called Pica, which sparks cravings for inedible objects.

Despite being described as a bubbly and happy girl, Dolly’s condition has meant that her mum is forced to keep items around the house away from arm’s reach, just in case she finds and eats them.
