Aniketh is a 2-year-old with a fast-progressing liver cancer. His cancer has spread to the pancreas and he needs chemotherapy and surgery to get better. His father Krishna is a an attendant in a private college in Mysore, and is struggling to fund Aniketh's expensive treatment. Aniketh with his parents Krishna and AshaAniketh's cancer was not diagnosed for over a yearAniketh's parents were just giving him toilet-training. It is not unusual for children to avoid the process, but Aniketh refused too often and seemed almost scared. Aniketh told his parents that he couldn't excrete because he had an 'abbu' (his word to describe hurt). His parents took him to the doctor but, laxatives usually seemed to take care of the constipation. Looking back, Aniketh's parents are appalled that they didn't see the signs - Aniketh's regular diarhhea and constipation. Only when he became weak and his stomach started swelling did they realise that it wasn't just a digestion or toilet training problem.
