The newborn who looks like an 80-year-old: Rare ageing condition means baby boy has wrinkles and thick hair on his back


Born in Magura, Bangladesh, local doctors have been left stunned as to what the cause of the baby boy's (right) ageing is - but they believe he has progeria. 


The condition - which affects just one in four million - often restricts children from having a normal life. But his parents are over the moon with the birth of their 'miracle' child (left) and can't hold back their happiness. And they remain positive he will grow up healthily despite most children with the condition not living past the age of 13. Father Biswajit Patro said: 'We can only thank God. There is no need to be unhappy about the appearance of my son.'
