A great man once said that it is okay to struggle and never okay to give up, however hard things may seem to be.
This is brian, a year and a half old baby living with a giant arm.
She is called dativa, the baby’s mother.
He is called teo, the baby’s father.
Today we bring you a story of a baby living with a giant um.
His parents say that, according to what they have seen, they witnessed that their sons arm won’t stop growing.
They tried all they could to stop this, but they failed.
In an african village is where we found this family and this unusual baby that they cannot carry anymore, since his body is very heavy now, according to the size of its giant arm.
They had to cut a jerry can put him inside and they have to pull him wherever they want him to go, since he cannot even walk.
She says that bran is their second born and their last.
This all started the moment he was born.
She and her husband had given birth to a girl before, and this time around they also expected to have a normal baby, but this did not happen at all.
After a year, the arm had become this big.
Doctors examined the baby’s body for quite some time and after they did they told dativa and her husband that Brian’s condition couldn’t at all be taken care of in this country.
The only way that he was going to ever get treatment was if he was taken overseas, to a country like India.
The doctor said that though his treatment was possible, it was very expensive, because they needed not less than eight thousand Us dollars for transportation and seven thousand dollars for weekly treatment.
This was shocking to them, since the money that they were asked for was more than they ever imagined they were.
Says that he thought of selling everything he had in order to get some money for treatment, but he says that even if he had sold everything he owned, he was sure that he wouldn’t come up with even a thousand Us dollars, so he gave up.
They took their baby back home and decided to take care of him until he takes his last breath.
It was unbelievable, but it was happening while they were watching and they couldn’t do anything to stop it at all.
At this level, it was obvious that they had failed.
She says that buying clothes for her son is very hard because after buying them, she has to remake them again so that they can fit her son, Brian.
Both parents cannot leave their baby like this at home alone, so when one is working, the other stays home and takes care of Brian, because he needs a lot of help, since he cannot even move, and they have been living like this for a very long time now.
Dativa digs for people in this society and also takes care of their cattle and other domestic animals, and that’s how she ever manages to get food for this family, though it is also not easy as it sounds, but she has to do this for the sake of her family.
