Baby Khatun’s father, Idris Ali, is a farmer and has seven children. At the age of three, Baby Khatun’s parents found out that she was blind. Baby Khatun’s mother, elder brother and sister worked at different locations in order to be able to afford food and thus had to leave her to go to work for entire days. Being blind, Baby Khatun was unable to perform simple daily tasks by herself, including independent movement and communication with others. CSF identified Baby Khatun in her district of Sirajganj and now provides her with home based rehabilitation and is trying to motivate her family to spend some much needed time with her. CSF has seen many improvements in Baby Khatun who wants to attend primary school.
