It Looks Like A Normal Family Now. Until Someone Tells You About Their Disease .
BY ALEX · SEPTEMBER 4, 2014
Jacob, Sam, Jared, Quil, and Leah…Remember these werewolf characters from Twilight Series? Well this is a story of a Nepali woman and her three Children who all suffer from the rare disease that causes
excessive hair growth over their bodies… making them look like werewolves.
The decese is called as “Congenital Hypertrichosis Lanuginosa” and commonly known as “werewolf syndrome”.
This Nepali woman,Devi Budhathoki, stays with her husband and three children Manjura, Niraj and Mandira.
Her husband does not suffer from werewolf syndrome and loves his wife the way she is.
“A good man does not pursue a woman for her appearance,” he said.
Still there is no medical solution available for this disease, but its symptoms can be reduced by laser hair removal.
1.) Devi Budhathoki, before the laser treatment.
2.) Youngest Daughter: Mandira Budhathoki
3.) Middle Son: Niraj Budhathoki
4.) Elder Sister: Manjura Budhathoki
5.) Devi’s family lives in a remote village in Nepal.
6.) Too poor for treatment, they spent most of their lives watching the stares and tolerating unkind comments brought on by their appearance.
7.)
8.) She didn’t want her children to suffer just because of their genetics.
9.) So she decided to change the situation. The family traveled from their remote village all the way to Kathmandu in order to be treated for ‘werewolf syndrome’.
10.) Leaving her youngest daughter, Devi and her two oldest children, Manjura and Niraj, underwent the non-invasive hair removal treatment.
11.)
12.) Before surgery, Devi was worried about her children.
13.) Doctors were successful in removing the excess hairs.
14.)
15.)
16.) And The Difference Was Clearly Visible
17.)
18.)
19.) Devi with her husband
20.) Happy and Hair-Free Family Ready for a Photograph.
As per the records, just 50 people have been diagnosed having the disease. Out of which around 34 cases have been adequately documented.
