Progeria is so rare that it took doctors in India 10 years to diagnose Ali Hussain's oldest sibling

>>> Ten years ago, even I was aware of this disease thanks to ABC 20/20 news magazine.

I can't believe Indian doctors have never read about it.

Nabi, who works as a gatekeeper at a factory earning 2,000 rupees - or £20 - a month said: ‘We never heard of the word Progeria, the doctors never mentioned it. They were stabbing in the dark; they were as clueless as us.

'If a doctor had perhaps told us that our children were suffering with some kind of genetic problem and we were connected we would’ve stopped having children. But nothing was said.’

>>>> This is the result of mediocre medical education.

Robin Williams acted in the movie JACK (1996), in which he ages fast and dies soon after college graduation looking like a 100 yr old guy.  I believe that was based on a true story.

At least our MBBSs should watch good English movie while in Medical college.
