Bangladesh - Dhaka - Disabled man with Muscular Dystrophy at home

Shuhaq, 22. Shuhaq was born healthy and grew up happily till he when he was 17 started to feel pains in the joints. He suffers from a genetic disease called Muscular Dystrophy and he is now 100% dependent. He cannot walk or feed himself and is in constant pain. The illness is not treatable and both his sister's two sons now suffer from the same illness. He lives with mother who is the sole carer with a little financial support from his sister and brother-in-law. CSOID used to provide him with a wheel chair but now the only support they can give is counselling and pain killers.
