SHE may look like a toddler – but Girija Srinivas is actually a teenager trapped in a twoyearold’s body. The 19yearold, from Bangalore in India, was born with congenital agenesis, meaning her limbs failed to fully develop and leaving her just two and a half feet tall and weighing a mere 12kg. Girija's condition means she is unable to stand or even situp and she relies on her mother to care for her and feed here.  But against the odds, and with her friends and family behind her, Girija is carving out a career as an artist. She makes between 8,000 and 10,000 rupees (£86108) selling her drawings each month, and dreams of one day achieving fame and independence.
