　　“小时候我们只能从玩具商店购买娃娃身上的衣服，因为对于莉兹来说，普通的婴儿服装都太大了，”母亲丽塔(Rita Velasquez)说。

"When I was a child we can only from the toy store to buy baby clothes,Because of YuLi for this,Ordinary baby clothes are too big,"Mother rita(Rita Velasquez)said.

　　目前医学界还无法治疗这种疾病，而莉兹也没有服用药物，由于体内缺少脂肪组织，她每天必须间隔15至20分钟就进食一次高热量的食物，但体重始终只能维持在26公斤左右。原本棕色的右眼，也在4岁时突变为蓝色，并且已经失明。

　　因外表异于常人，多年来莉兹一直备受嘲讽，走在街上会被路人一直盯着看或耳语议论，网络上人们称她是“世界上最丑的女人”、“怪物”，有网友直接发邮件要她自杀，甚至有网站完全致力于抨击她。

　　曾经有过自我怀疑，但莉兹最终走出心魔，找到了勇敢面对世人歧视的方法。她给自己定下了四个目标：成为一个激励人心的演说家，出版一本书，大学毕业，建立自己的家庭和拥有自己的职业。如今，她已经部分实现了这些梦想。

There have been self-doubt,But Liz finally out of the heart,Find the courage in the face of the world discrimination method.Her for his set the four goals:Become a inspiring speaker,Publishing a book,Graduated from the university,Build your own family and have their own career.now,She has been partially realized the dream.

　　上周走进电视台与观众分享心路历程时，莉兹坦言：“第一次在网络上遭人攻击时，心里真的很难受，我也是人，但我不会因此而自暴自弃。”她最终认识到，网络上散布流言蜚语的人，多是在电脑屏幕后的胆小鬼而已。对于街上异样的眼神，如今的莉兹会自信地走到那些人面前介绍自己，或者递上名片对他们说：“你好，我叫维拉斯克斯。也许你不应该盯着别人看，而应该把时间用在学习上。”

Last week into television and audience share the journey,Liz said:"For the first time in the network was attacked,Heart is really uncomfortable,I am also one,But I am not so becomes."She finally realized,The network spread gossip,Many computer screen is in after just a coward.For the street strange eyes,Today's Liz will confidently walk to those who introduce yourself before,Or pass card said to them:"hello,My name is vilas Banks.Maybe you should not stare at the other people see,And should have time on study."

　　莉兹还表示，自己不希望成为一名美丽达人，因为很多人都误以为美女只有漂亮的脸蛋却无聪明的大脑，“我觉得我这样挺好，至少人们可以了解到真正的我。”

Liz also said,I don't hope to become a beautiful people,Because many people mistakenly assume that beauty is only a beautiful face but no smart brain,"I think me so well,At least people can understand the true me."
