Everyone has a story, but not everyone likes to tell it. Sometimes, we feel alone, as though even if we tell the people around us our stories, they won't really understand them, and we'll end up alone, vulnerable, and hurt. Such is the case for many teenagers here in our home country India.

According to nephrologist paediatricians, around 3 in 20 children below the age of 6 suffer from Chronic Kidney Disease. We feel like this percentage is high, yet CKD isn't spoken about enough.
