Girl Who Sheds Her Skin Every Six Weeks Thrown Out Of School [graphic Photos] by Vaxt(m): 12:32pm On Jan 29, 2017
A teenager who sheds her skin every six weeks due
to a rare condition that dries it out has been
thrown out of school because classmates are scared
of her.


Shalini Yadav, 16, suffers from Erythroderma, an
inflammatory skin disease also known as ‘red man
syndrome’, which doctors are unable to treat.

She needs to soak her body in water every hour and
smear it in moisturiser every three hours to prevent it
from seizing up and flaking off.

But her family of eight cannot afford the cream and she
has shed her skin every 45 days since she was born.

And she has now been thrown out of school because the
other children are scared of her because of her snake-
like appearance.

Her desperate mother Devkunwar said: ‘Shalini is
suffering from the disease since childhood.

‘We saw several doctors but none of them could cure her
and her condition has continued to get worse.

‘I feel so helpless when I see her skin coming off, causing
excruciating pain to my child.

‘This disease is not killing her but taking her life bit by bit.

We have no idea where to go to and who to consult.’
Devkunwar, a care-giver in a state-funded community
centre, is so heart-broken she says death would be kinder
to her daughter.

She added: ‘It is better to die than living a life of misery.’
Shalini’s two siblings Sejal, 15, and Price, eight, are
normal with no such complication.

Her father Rajbahadur, a daily wage worker, said: ‘It’s
really sad because she was not born normally and has
scaly skin all over her body.

‘It is similar to being severely burnt, from the sole of her
feet to her head.’

Shalini said: ‘I wanted to study but they threw me out of
school as the children would get scared by seeing my
face.

‘Everybody in the family is suffering because of my
medical condition.

‘But what is my fault? What sin did I commit to be cursed
with such a disease. I want to live.

‘Please help me, if you can.’

Any story that isn't from the developed world and is not Islam-related is likely to come from India because of their ridiculous population.

why does religion have to be brought into every issue. Finally I am now believing word religion is a major cause of all the problems we have in the world. If u do not have De same believe with me you are automatically my enemy I can't even see De logic in that. Pls let's try and leave religion and look at issues more critically. There r people here in Nigeria who have Di's kinda ailment at least I know one and he out grew it surprisingly.

Pollution plays a fairly big role in birth defects. If you look up the Ganges river for example, you'll see how unclean the river is, dead corpses and rubbish are everywhere, and that's the place where a lot of Indians eat, clean and drink from. Also, the streets are absolutely littered with rubbish and junk, it is overall just very unsanitary in many parts of India

Some of the streets in India, it looks like a pretty awful place to live.

Although I'm no expert, I'm pretty sure that these conditions can't be good for your health, and that would also effect the development of babies in the womb. It's also worth noting that countries with high populations are statistically more likely to have children with birth defects, that's just maths though and doesn't necessarily represent the living conditions.

TLDR: Pollution and litter negatively affect the development of babies, therefore there are more birth defects.

this reminds me of a guy in my primary school days, Alabi, he had similar disorder, nobody wanted to sit close to him, although his own is not as serious as this, we usually mock and laugh at him, just few months ago, I saw him, he wasn't that bad anymore, donno Wat he used but all the scales have drastically reduced, he even wore short-sleeved shirt I was so happy for him.
