So So Sad! This Boy Has A skin condition Slowly Turning Him Into A Stone

This really got me worried...what a life! Ramesh looked like any other bouncing baby boy when his mother Nar Kumari held her little boy for the first time. SADLY, just 15 days after she got him home, her son's skin began to peel and was replaced by thick, black scales which have been slowly and painfully entombing him since.

His rare skin disorder, which is slowly turning him into a stone statue, has robbed the 11-year-old boy of his ability to walk and even talk.

And for a long time it seemed there was no hope for a cure, leaving his desperate mother and her husband Nanda helpless to do anything besides watch him slowly turn to stone...

Mr Nanda told Mail Online: ‘His skin started peeling off 15 days after he was born and then new skin began to grow very thick. It hardened and turned black, we had no idea what to do about it. No one helped us.'

In fact, doctors in Baglung, the remote Nepalese region where the family live, seemed bemused by what they told them was a 'fungal infection' and said they couldn't help.

All the while, Ramesh was getting worse.
‘By this fifth birthday he began to say his body was in pain and he couldn’t walk,' said Nanda. 'He’s never really been able to explain anything to us either.

'He is only able to inform us when he’s hungry or wants to use the toilet. He used to sit and cry but we didn’t know what was hurting him or how to help him.

‘Any young child would see him and run away crying. It was hard for him and us to watch.’
At six, the condition had left him unable to walk, and so he has never been to school. Even when his parents did discover the cause, an extremely rare condition called Ichthyosis, they were unable to do anything to ease their son's suffering.

'We did not have enough money and had no choice than to keep Ramesh home and do our best.’

Ramesh's luck changed when a video of him struggling was shared on social media - and it was spotted by the acclaimed Nepalese singer Sanjay Shrestha, who happened to be helping Stone organise a concert.

According to Daily mail, he is now receiving treatment at the Kathmandu Medical College, where doctors remain hopeful they may be able to make his life easier.
