Allan was brought to Kids Home International by a staff working with LIVE WITH HOPE organization, his single mother is a commercial sex worker, she disappeared to unknown place and left her child  under the care of a drunkard grandmother.

The house he was living was invested with jiggers and therefore he was exposed to extreme infection and attack from them. These insects that look like fleas are voracious and are the culprits in the epidemic which causes parts of the body to rot or  death in young children. In an effort to survive, Allan  had also been visiting the prisons next to their home begging for food.
