5-year-old boy from Nashik
The survivor’s journey, before and after surgery.
5-year-old boy lived with neck contractures tethering his chin to his chest and impairing swallowing.
Before surgery
Rigid cervical scar tethering. Scars that tighten across the face and neck pull at the skin and limit everyday movement.
The surgery
The surgery was done at Vedant Hospital in Nashik, a BHF partner hospital. BHF funded it in full, at no cost to the family.
After surgery
Free head rotation and comfortable gaze.
