    Boisang

    from Manipur, Assam

Boisang Haokip from Manipur is a 3-year-old child with a giant head. He is suffering from a condition called hydrocephalus- accumulation of cerebrospinal fluid in the brain. This condition has caused his head to grow abnormally big.


Within few weeks of his birth, Boisang developed fever and cold. He cried a lot and was very weak. Soon his parents noticed that his head looked much bigger.  It was initially brushed off as a common sign for babies but a second opinion at a different hospital confirmed it was a case of hydrocephalus.

His doctors advised the parents to visit another city for treatment but the parents couldn't afford it.


How you can help

It hurts his parents to watch him every day. His head is so big that it has affected his vision. The family is scared they will lose him but there is nothing they could. They are looking forward to generous help to save their son from this misery.
