Ailing teen still does his bit to help ease financial burden

Tough times: The money earned by Mohd Aidil Adha and his mother Aida is not enough to support his medical treatment and their living costs.

IPOH: Teenager Mohd Aidil Adha Muhd Nizal occasionally suffers from painful swelling of his feet and face as a result of nephrotic syndrome, but that does not deter him from helping his mother sell nasi lemak.

Mohd Aidil Adha, 14, said he wanted to lessen his mother’s burden as she was the sole breadwinner of the family after his father passed away in 2010.
