Case Summary

Even though Sonu is 17, his vital stats were close to that of a 12 year old because of this condition. Sonu has five siblings, his youngest sister is only six years old. Sonu’s father makes less than Rs. 6000 pm (less than $100pm), which is barely enough to feed their family of eight.
