Few months ago we noticed that her muscles of hands, legs, neck back become flabby making the organs thin and unable her to walk or stand without support,” said Idris.
“As I took her to Domar upazila health complex, doctors after examining for a long time, opined that she might have been attacked with uncommon AFP disease,” he added.
