He was struggling to walk.«I spoke to him the next day to ask him what happened, and he said he had injured his legs while lion-dancing, so I did not suspect too much,» she said.Over the next few days, they noticed their son would change between five and 10 pairs of shorts throughout the night.

But it was a bit too late.”
