Nicole Delien is a 17-year-old from North Fayette, Pa. near Pittsburgh. Her mom Vicki told CBS station KDKA in Pittsburgh that her daughter sleeps 18 or 19 hours a day, only to wake up to eat in a sleepwalking state that she doesn't remember. Her longest sleeping episode lasted 64 days, from Thanksgiving into January, her mother said. She's missed out on Thanksgiving, birthdays and family trips, but recently was diagnosed with the rare disorder at Allegheny General Hospital. Kleine-Levein Syndrome (KLS) is characterized by recurrent and unusually long episodes of excessive sleepiness that affects behavioral and cognitive abilities and hunger, according to the Center for Narcolepsy at the Stanford University School of Medicine. The condition primarily strikes adolescents.
