A rare disease has left an 11-month-old girl with a tumour covering half of her face. Chingrung Mro, from a remote area of Bangladesh, was first admitted to hospital at nine months and diagnosed with a ganglioglioma cyst - a rare slow-growing tumour.
Since birth, it has been growing consistently bigger and could be fatal for the little girl if left untreated.
But a social media campaign launched by social worker Fabian Gomez is set to change her life. Mr Gomez's Facebook campaign caught the attention of Bangladeshi minister Obaidul Quader, who arranged for Chingrung to be treated at Dhaka Medical College.
