Thuvan Sameera is suffering from arthrogryposis, a rare congenital disease causing severe joint contractures in two or more areas of the body.
Besides, the girl has a weak backbone and muscles, that means she can’t stand, walk or eat on her own. Nevertheless, Sameera’s parents, her father Thuvan Mahura, 54, and mother Nona Jesmin, 48, hope that one day their daughter will become a professional artist.
Her mum said: “Sameera was born in Saudi Arabia. After her birth, the doctor told us that there wasn’t much that they could do about this condition. Since then, it has been a struggle to grow up like this. We decided to let her be after a point.
So from a very young age she would paint and draw. She cannot do anything by herself but she had interest in painting since she was small. She would keep looking at them so I brought her brushes and colours. We also encouraged her.”
But Jesmin and Mahura did not lose hope, they believe that progress in medical sciences will allow Sameera to live a normal life in the nearest future.
