Give Hoorain Fatima a Chance to Hear

Hoorain Fatima's Story

For Hoorain Fatima, a life filled with silence has been her constant companion. The burden of her hearing loss weighs heavily on her, leading to deep feelings of loneliness and a sense of being cut off from society. Despite the possibility of a surgical solution that could restore her hearing, her family’s limited financial resources present a formidable obstacle to accessing the necessary treatment. Your generous contribution possesses the power to bring about a transformative change in Hoorain’s life, granting her the invaluable gift of sound and opening up a world of hope and new possibilities. Hoorain eagerly awaits the opportunity to undergo cochlear implant surgery, which holds the promise of a normal life for her.

Four-year-old Hoorain Fatima, a resident of Karachi, has experienced hearing loss since birth. Her parents became aware of her inability to respond to their voices when she was a year old, prompting their concern. They took her to a local hospital, where she underwent various tests. Following consultations with doctors, she was diagnosed with sensorineural hearing loss, and the recommended course of action was cochlear implant surgery. A cochlear implant is a small electronic device that stimulates the cochlear nerve, enabling electrical auditory stimulation.

Hoorain resides in a rented house with her parents and one sibling in Karachi. Her father, who works as a daily wage laborer, is the sole provider for the family, earning just PKR 30,000 per month. However, his financial situation is strained as he has to cover the monthly expenses of PKR 18,000 for rent, PKR 5,000 for utility bills, and PKR 1,000 for school fees. Given these circumstances, he has no additional income or savings to afford the expensive surgery required for his daughter. With a sense of desperation, he shares his predicament.

“Our daughter is unable to hear, and the treatment she needs is beyond our means. Her hearing loss is causing her immense distress. We humbly request your assistance in making this surgery possible. Your support would mean the world to us and bring immeasurable happiness to her life.”

Hoorain’s father has approached Transparent Hands, hoping to secure cochlear implant surgery for her so she can discover the world of sounds. We urge you to give generously to support her procedure, allowing her the joy of connecting with her family and the world around her. Your donation can profoundly impact Hoorain’s life, opening up a future filled with possibilities and inclusion.
