Dream – Not everyone is lucky enough to be born perfect. Despite all the shortcomings, both physical and mental, these people still have the opportunity to achieve their dreams. Although sometimes faced with discrimination or mockery from many people, they never give up on pursuing their dreams.

Like Ganesh Baraiya, a man from India who was crowned the world's shortest doctor at only 101 centimeters tall. The 23-year-old man was born in the Talaja Thaluka area in Gujarat, India. Although he was born normally, Baraiya experienced a disorder when he was four years old.

When Ganesh's mother found out that her child's illness could not be cured, she put a helmet the size of a bathtub on his head to prevent its growth and give his body a chance to catch up. Thanks to his condition, Ganesh is often teased for his large head size and short body. However, Ganesh also has friends who continue to support him, and these insults do not distract him from his studies.

Father Ganesh, Viththal Bhai, who works as a farmer, was offered 100,000 rupees or around Rp18.9 million to allow his son to join the circus group. Viththal felt devastated by the offer and worried about his son's safety. Since then, he started accompanying him to school and preventing Ganesh from going without his supervision.

Although having limitations, Ganesh is a very ambitious person and has always aspired to become a doctor since childhood. He even registered to obtain a Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery (MBBS) degree. Unfortunately, the Medical Council of India rejected his application due to his dwarfism, stating that Ganesh would not be able to perform his duties during critical moments.

"I am very disappointed (with the rejection), but I refuse to accept their rejection. Now I am very happy because I have received justice from the Supreme Court," he said. In 2018, the highest court in India finally granted Ganesh the right to enroll in MBBS."

Recently, Ganesh has just completed his studies and worked as an intern doctor at Sir-T Hospital in Bhavnagar. "Now I am on my way to fulfilling the dream that I have cherished since childhood. I know I am different, but I want to live a good life like everyone else and make my parents proud," he said, as quoted from Oddity Central.

Patients who initially saw Ganesh were surprised, but slowly they started to get used to it. “Every time patients see me, they are slightly surprised at first, but then they accept me and I also accept their initial behavior. They are friendly and positive towards me. They also become happy about it,” he explained.
