MOHAMAD Andy Hakimi Abdullah has always wanted to march with his school’s Youth Cadet Corps, but he cannot do so because he has adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (spinal curvature).

The 14-year-old SMK Bukit Jambul student used to play handball at school, but had to stop as he got breathless easily and could not walk far.
