A 13-year-old boy who was left an outcast in his village in India because his head hung upside down has risked life changing surgery to straighten his neck.
Mahendra Ahirwar suffers from a rare condition called congenital myopathy which has made his muscles in his neck so weak his head would hang at a 180-degree angle.
His parents Mukesh Ahirwar, 41, and mother Sumitra Ahirwar, 36, spent years taking him to see doctors but no one could help.
But now the teenager has undergone life-changing surgery by a former NHS surgeon after a mother-of-two from Liverpool set up a crowd-funding page raising £12,000 for treatment.
Spinal surgeon Dr Rajagopalan Krishnan, from Apollo Hospital, in Delhi, performed the operation after Julie Jones made it possible.

Alright, had no idea. Thanks.

I read this story yesterday,quite inspiring cos all the fund was raised online,by a women who has no relationship whatsoever with the boy and people contributed their money to help the kid.This is true love,the irony of it all is that these good Samaritans might not be religious at all,but they saw a need and met it.This is love,Nigerians should learn from this.

True, the story was really beautiful and amazing.
