15-year-old boy cries blood several times a day
WTKR-TV3
A 15-year-old Tennessee boy is crying blood several times a day.
Calvino Inman seems like any other 15-year-old boy. But then, without warning...
"My eyes start bleeding."
He says it happens at least three times a day, and can last from a few minutes to up to an hour.
"Sometimes, I can feel it coming up, like a tear. I feel my eyes watering. Sometimes, it will burn as it comes out."
"I've been called possessed by almost all of my friends. I guess I'm used to it now. At first, it kind of hurt my feelings,"
His mom says, "The scariest thing in my life is when he looked at me and said 'Mom, am I going to die?' That right there broke my heart,"
The first time she saw it Tammy Mynatt called 911.
"They done an MRI, they done a CAT scan, they done it with and without an IV, they've done ultra sounds."
But when the tests came back normal she took him to several specialists but still has no diagnosis and no treatment.
"Every doctor tells us they've never seen anything like this before in all their many years of being a doctor,"
Now, his mother says she's running out of hope.
"More than anything, I just truly want somebody to say they've seen this and they can help us. I don't care where we have to travel. I will go wherever we need to go. I will do whatever I have to do. I just please want somebody to help my baby. That's all. "
