According to Savita, while looking for an answer and the right treatment for this rare genetic disorder it caused them, to spend every penny they have. "We do not expect any miracles but we do want someone to make life comfortable for them," she added.

In their town, the neighbors are used to see this rare genetic disorder present with Ramesh and Laxman, however, not with the strangers. Ramesh recalled one incident when strangers called them "ghost" and this caused them to develop a fear of being misjudged outside the home.

Dr. Aayush Gupta, an assistant professor, at DY Patil Hospital, in Pune helped the family by referring the case to Progeria Research Foundation in the US, however, according to the foundation, it is not progeria.

"We both want to be doctors but we know our dream cannot be accomplished because we don't go to school for studies," Ramesh added via Daily Mail.
