Donate for Ayyan’s Cochlear Implant Surgery

Ayyan Gul 's Story

The cochlear implant procedure will alter the life of sweet little Ayyan. Without the procedure, he would not be able to learn or communicate effectively, and he would not get to enjoy all the benefits of hearing his surroundings. His silence has saddened his loved ones. We implore you to donate for Ayyan’s cochlear implant surgery so that he can function normally.

Four-year-old Ayyan, a resident of Dera Ismail Khan, has congenital sensorineural hearing loss. His parents realized something was wrong when he was a year old because he was not responding to their voices. His parents took him to the nearest hospital for testing. Following a consultation, he was diagnosed with sensorineural deafness. The doctor advised him to have cochlear implant surgery. A cochlear implant is a small electronic device that stimulates the cochlear nerve, (which is responsible for hearing). The implant is made up of both external and internal components. The exterior portion is attached behind the ear. It processes the sounds using a microphone before sending them to the implant in the ear.

He lives with his parents and three siblings in a small house. His father is a salesperson and earns only PKR 20,000 per month. He desperately needs assistance because, unfortunately, he cannot afford the cost of the surgery. He said in distress:

“My biggest worry for my son is the fact that I was not able to come up with enough money for his cochlear implant procedure. Please consider making a donation right now.”

Someone told his parents about Transparent Hands and the causes we champion, and they reached out to us for help. Now, all we need from you is a little donation so we can give him a cochlear implant. We request that you donate for Ayyan’s cochlear implant surgery and allow him to live his life to the fullest.
