But the details of Leblanc's story could not be verified...
...course, turn into particular superheroes because of varying talents and inclinations. Leslie Gordon and Scott Berns, for example, were both multidegree doctors--she has an M.D. and a Ph.D., he has an M.D. and a master's in public health--when a doctor friend diagnosed progeria in their 21-month-old son Sam, now 7 (the rare disease causes accelerated aging and often leads to death by early adolescence).
