Lets meet with Mst. Rafia Khatun

In the heart of a struggling village in Bangladesh, 5-year-old Rafia Khatun shines as a beacon of courage and determination. Despite her young age, Rafia faces immense challenges daily, living with Physical Disability, Epilepsy, and Intellectual Disability. While most children her age are running, laughing, and exploring their world, Rafia’s journey has been shaped by her unique needs. As a baby, Rafia reached her milestones later than other children. She learned to sit at 10 months, stand at 1 year, walk at 2 years, and speak at 3 years. However, her speech remains unlike that of her peers, and her behavior is distinct, earning her the label of a "special needs child." Rafia’s mother recounts the early days with a mix of joy and sorrow. "After her birth, she seemed fine, just like any other baby. But after two days, she developed a fever and convulsions. That was the beginning of our worries." Since then, Rafia has struggled to keep up with other children in her physical, mental, and social development. Her mother shares their constant concern: "She is behind in everything, and we are always tense about her future. Financial problems have kept us from seeking help from a good doctor, but we dream of giving her the care she needs." Despite her challenges, Rafia dreams of playing, learning, and growing alongside her peers. With the right care and support, Rafia has the potential to make remarkable progress, unlocking opportunities for a brighter future.
