When a nine-year-old boy arrived at the hospital by himself and complained of excruciating stomach discomfort, the physicians were appalled by what they discovered 😱😱

The emergency room doors opened late at night, and a scrawny youngster of roughly nine entered. He was by himself, dressed in shabby clothing that were much too big for his diminutive frame. His hands gripped his stomach, his lips quivered, and his face was pale.

— It’s really painful. my belly… — he muttered softly.

The youngster had arrived all by himself, which surprised the nurse. The boy was escorted into the examination room as soon as she called the doctor who was on duty.

The physician sought to learn something:

— What is your name? Your folks are where? Did you harm yourself in a fall?

However, the youngster simply shook his head and said it again:

My gut aches. terribly

He made no mention of his home, father, or mother. He sounded as though he was scared to talk.

Concerned about his condition, the physicians requested an X-ray and testing right away. Everyone in the room froze when the pictures came on the screen 😱😱

There was a long metallic object visible inside the boy’s intestines.

Unable to believe his eyes, one of the surgeons remarked, “A nail.”

The youngster was ready for surgery right away. Extreme caution was exercised by the doctors because any mistake could result in hemorrhage.

The whole crew let out a breath of relief when the surgeon finally held the sharp, rusty nail. The child’s survival was amazing.

However, the primary problems were still unresolved: how could a youngster of nine ingest a nail?

A social worker and a psychologist attempted to speak with him following the procedure. The youngster was mute at first, obstinately gazing at the ground, but suddenly he said these words in a tremulous voice:

Dad said. I must… If I don’t, I’ll suffer a negative outcome.

The physicians looked at each other. Gradually, a horrifying image surfaced from the fragmented sentences. It was discovered that the father had made the youngster swallow spoiled food, screws, and nails.

He captured everything on his phone and uploaded it to the internet in an attempt to garner views and “likes.”

The youngster sobbed while explaining that he never dared to rebel because every “task” resulted in agony.

The hospital was astonished by the story. Child protection services and the police were contacted right away. The boy was placed under protection, and the father was taken into custody.
