Disease Causes Tragic Toddler’s Head To Swell Up Like A Balloon by Nobody: 6:25pm On Apr 12, 2013 |
A HEARTBROKEN dad cradles his 18-month-old daughter, who suffers from a rare disorder which has caused her head to swell to three times its normal size. Roona Begum, from Agartala, in north eastern India has hydrocephalus - a build up of cerebrospinal fluid inside her skull. Sufferers typically experience loss of coordination and speech and in long-term cases it can result in mental disability and death. A treatment is available, in which doctors drain the fluid. But India has no NHS and Roona's dad, 26-year-old Abdul Rahman, earns less than £2 a day working in a brick factory and can't afford to pay for her to be treated privately. http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/news/4884736/Disease-causes-tragic-toddlers-head-to-swell-up-like-a-balloon.html
