LWD: Leri-Weill dyschondrosteosis - genetic disorder of bone growth. More severe in females. At your age - your bones have long stopped growing. You might consider genetic testing as there are treatments for children with the disorder. NOT much out there on this but try http://rarediseases.info.nih.gov/GARD/ or http://ghr.nlm.nih.gov/condition/leri-weill-dyschondrosteosis Good luck
