The children, Yogita, 6, Anisha, 4, and Harsh Nandwana, 3 are suffering from a mysterious condition where they are unable to stop eating. They cannot tell when they are full and will eat several times in a day.
The children's father, Rameshbhai, says he is willing to sell his kidney just to be able to pay for the health intervention he is sure his children needs.
Yogita weighs 37kg, Anisha clocks 56kg and Harsh weighs 20kg.
The kids are constantly hungry as they eat several times a day
Their father, a labourer who does menial jobs said, 'If they continue to put on weight like this, they won't be able to move an inch in coming days.
'I cannot see them dying in front of my eyes, so I will do whatever deems fit to take them to the right medical treatment.
They have another sibling who is actually a healthy weight
'If that requires me to sell my kidney, I won't hesitate doing so.'
He said: 'Their belly is an abyss. It is hard to be sure that their well-fed and their hunger is satiated. The kids demand food all the time and if there is any delay they start crying and screaming.
'The kitchen has become my living room now. At times, I get frustrated but then I console myself it is not the kids' fault. That they are suffering more than I do.'
He said: 'I work overtime in fields, dig wells, and do whatever menial job comes my way just to ensure that the kids are not hungry. "
Their other child, Bhavika is a healthy size.
