In India, found a child with "werewolf syndrome"

A unique child discovered in India. A 13-year-old boy Lalit suffers from a rare disease of hypertrichosis, which is popularly called the werewolf syndrome. The face of the child is profusely covered with hair, and because of this Lalit doesn't remember what he really looks like. The story of a werewolf boy told reporters today The Daily Mail.

A boy was born in Ratlam in the Indian state of Madhya Pradesh. The baby looked at birth more than strange, and his mother admitted that she was scared.

Several times the parents invited the pediatrician’s son to the house to cut his facial hair, this, unfortunately, is all that can be done there is no cure for hypertrichosis.

For a long time parents could not accept it and took the child to different specialists, they even turned to shamans and healers, but all was in vain.

Lalit today lives quite a normal, rich life of a teenager - goes to the general school, learns “good” and “excellent”. is he got used to himself, loved and accepted himself the way he was born. The boy says that he is quite comfortable.

Probably, it is this internal positive attitude that is transmitted to others, and therefore, those who want to throw a stone at a child or insult it are usually not - Lalit has many friends and girlfriends.

The boy has already enlisted the support of the director of the state police department, who promised to send Lalit to the academy after successful graduation.

Hypertrichosis is a disease that manifests itself in excessive hair growth where it should not grow, more often on the face and hands. Congenital form of the disease, which is diagnosed in Lalita, can not be cured and corrected. This is a very rare disease.
