The transformation is remarkable. It doesn't even look like the same person.

"A week ago Hinga and I couldn't hold a normal conversation without me trying to hold his head up with my hand in order for him to concentrate," Wanja wrote in a Facebook Post. "Today we can have a normal conversation with him confidently looking at me."

We should all strive to be like Wanja.
