Sakana is an only child from a village about one hour from CSC. His favorite thing to do is play with toy cars.
Sakana was born with a thyroglossal cyst - a growth in his throat. His mother brought him to CSC for treatment because he has a lot of difficulty swallowing and some difficulty with speaking. She says her son does not like eating and sometimes even vomits as a result of his condition.
