Did second First Daughter Sasha Obama come close to death as a baby?

That's frighteningly true! President Obama revealed the secret about his youngest daughter during the first ever Internet Town Hall meeting this week.

Obama said, "She got meningitis when she was 3 months old... very dangerous. The doctors did a terrific job."

According to Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), meningitis causes approximately 170,000 deaths worldwide in children under the age of 5.

The 7-year-old is healthy now -- and cute as a button!
