Misael weighted 2.9kg when he was
born but every month since then, he
has gained approximately 3 kilograms.
The poor boy, who is supposedly
suffering from Prader–Willi syndrome,
now weighs 70kg and is struggling to
walk.

Classic signs and symptoms include
constant craving for food and rapid
weight gain. Misael eats frequently and
consumes large portions and even then
he still feels hungry. The boy also has
serious behavioral problems and his
parents have to hire a private taxi to
transport the boy to a local hospital.

While syndrome itself is not life
threatening, the compulsive eating and
resulting weight gain can be. That is
why restricting a child’s diet is a
particularly important part of managing
their condition.
"And when we walk down the
street, people stop, want to take
pictures with him, people say that
they never saw a boy this size."

Although there is no cure for
Prader-Willi syndrome, treatment aims
to manage such symptoms as a
permanent feeling of hunger, which
can easily lead to dangerous weight
gain, reduced muscle tone, learning
difficulties and behavioral problems...
