This beautiful girl is unable to leave her home because she bleeds spontaneously from her eyes, ears, beneath her tongue and from her scalp at any moment.

Marnie-Rae Harvey, 17, woke up with blood seeping out of her eye. She was rushed to hospital by her terrified family, but doctors could do nothing.

Soon after, blood started seeping from her ears and from under her fingernails.

In the last couple of months the mysterious bleeding has spread to her scalp and under her tongue.

Baffled doctors have no idea what is causing the bleeding, which is steadily getting worse, and have dubbed her the "Mystery Girl" as they struggle to come up with a diagnosis.

An ultrasound scan showed her liver, kidneys, womb and ovaries and confirmed all organs are functioning perfectly, she added, and her eyes, ears, nose and throat are all fine.

Her mother Cath Harvey said: "Every morning I have to shake her to see if she is still alive. It's absolutely devastating. It happens every single day. We've just gone through 12 days of solid bleeding from her tongue and scalp. She is sick four or five times a day, vomiting blood."

Cath said she feels frustrated that doctors are unable to diagnose her daughter's condition.

One of the worst things for the family is the reaction of other people when they see her daughter.

Marnie said the worst thing about her condition was being unable to leave the house or carry on with her life.

The family are sharing their story in the hope someone somewhere has heard of the condition and could help them.

Cath said: "We know there will be silly comments, people calling her a vampire. But we hope someone, somewhere will have witnessed it and give us something, anything to help.

"We want to raise awareness, there must be someone else in the world with this."

Until they do, the teenager is forced to stay at home as the bleeding could start at any time.
