Nicole Delien is tired of sleeping, This 17-year-old teenager from North Fayette, Pa., has a rare condition called Kleine-Levin Syndrome -- or "Sleeping Beauty Syndrome" -- that makes her sleep 18 to

19 hours a day.

And when she does wake up, she is often so tuckered out that she is in a sleep walking state and doesn't remember doing basic things like eating, according to KDKA-TV.

Nicole's somnambulant state has been so severe that she once slept through the holidays, awaking one day in January when she finally opened Christmas gifts alongside her family, according to ChartiersValley.Patch.com.

"She's never really adjusted to it," her mother, Vicki Delien told the website. "She's 17 now and it really upsets her. She's missed out on a lot."

Delien told talks show host Jeff Probst that the teen has sometimes slept 32 to 64 days in a row, waking only in sleepwalking mode to eat.

Kleine-Levin Syndrome is incredibly rare, only affecting about 1,000 people worldwide and its very hard to diagnose.
