Indian Boy Born With His Head Upsidedown Dies 8 Months After Sugery. by Explorers(m): 6:43pm On Nov 07, 2016
A 13-year-old boy in India whose head was hanging at a 180-degree angle has died just eight months after life-changing surgery to fix it.

Mahendra Ahirwar, who suffered from a rare condition called congenital myopathy which made the muscles in his neck so weak his head would hang, had been absolutely fine in the morning.

His mother Sumitra, 36, said he had his lunch on Saturday, lay down to watch TV and at around 3pm passed away.

Crocked: Schoolboy Mahendra Ahirwar (pictured) had a rare condition which made his neck muscles so weak that his head hung to one side and he saw the world at a 180-degree angle.

Prior to surgery, his mother Sumitra, 36, said: 'I can't see Mahendra suffer any more.

Watching his life is devastating. He cannot do anything by himself'.

Before the operation Mahendra, pictured, was unable to go to school.

But after the op he was allowed to join the other children, while wearing a neck brace.

After the life-changing surgery, Mahendra, above, could finally see the world the right way up.

Re: Indian Boy Born With His Head Upsidedown Dies 8 Months After Sugery. by Explorers(m): 2:58am On Nov 08, 2016
Before surgery Mahendra needed his mum to feed, bathe and dress him. His siblings Surendra, 11, and 14-year-old Manisha, both went to school.

And his older brother Lalit, 17, tried to find work. Meanwhile he was left at home. Even his friends used to ignore him.

Re: Indian Boy Born With His Head Upsidedown Dies 8 Months After Sugery. by Explorers(m): 3:00am On Nov 08, 2016
Mahendra's fortunes were changed when a mother-of-two living 4,000 miles away in the UK read about his plight and launched a crowd funding page to raise £12,000 for his surgery

Recovery: Mahendra's family were overjoyed that the teenager can finally go to school.

But eight months after the op he has tragically passed away.

Some situations cant be detected via the scan until way after birth. Take for example autism, limb dysfunctions etc.... Anyway, why get of the rid of the foetus/child when these situations can at least be manageable?

You dont even know why he is like that and you are jumping to abortion...
Just say you are looking for excuse to abort as many as you want.

His condition cannot be detected via scan or any other medical equiptment
