Let’s Change Hammad’s Life with Cochlear Implant Surgery
Hammad Hussain's Story
Hammad Hussain, a 9-year-old boy from Muzaffargarh, has been unable to hear since birth. Upon noticing his unresponsiveness to sounds, his parents took him to a local hospital and consulted a doctor. After running some tests, the doctor diagnosed him with congenital Sensorineural Hearing Loss (SNHL) and advised cochlear implant surgery. In 2018, Hammad received a cochlear implant on his right side. For the first time, he heard the voices of his loved ones nd he developed his capability to speak. However, this change didn’t last long. Recently, the implant that brought sounds into Hammad’s life stopped functioning. To ensure his ability to hear, his doctor has now recommended cochlear implant surgery on his left side. However, the cost of the surgery is overwhelming for Hammad’s family.
Without this surgery, Hammad risks losing the progress he has made in his speech and development, and his future may be at stake. The sooner he receives the cochlear implant, the better his chances of speech and language development which are important at his age.
Hammad lives in a small house with his family of seven members. His father, the sole breadwinner in the family, is a police constable. He works hard to provide for his family, but his modest monthly income just covers their basic needs. Due to their financial constraints, affording to pay for Hammad’s much-needed surgery is impossible for them. During this time of need, Hammad’s parents contacted Transparent Hands and asked for assistance.
Hammad’s family said in despair:
“We saw our son’s world light up when he heard for the first time after his surgery. It breaks our hearts to see him return to silence. We just want him to have a chance to grow and dream like other children. Please help him with undergoing the surgery.”

Hammad Hussain's Story
Hammad Hussain, a 9-year-old boy from Muzaffargarh, had been unable to hear since birth. When his parents noticed his lack of response to sounds, they took him to a local hospital. The doctor conducted some tests and diagnosed him with congenital Sensorineural Hearing Loss (SNHL). In 2018, Hammad underwent surgery and a cochlear implant was placed in his right ear. For the first time, he heard the voices of his loved ones and started developing his ability to speak. However, the implant that had allowed him to experience the world of sounds stopped functioning. To restore his hearing, his doctor advised cochlear implant surgery for his left ear this time. Unfortunately, the cost of the surgery was far beyond his family’s financial means.
Hammad lived in a small house with his family of seven. His father, a police constable, was the sole breadwinner and worked hard to provide for his loved ones. However, his modest monthly income was only enough to cover their basic necessities, making it impossible to afford such an expensive medical procedure. Desperate to find a solution, Hammad’s family reached out to Transparent Hands for help. Recognizing the gravity of his situation, we swiftly registered his case and made the necessary arrangements for his surgery.
On January 23, 2025, Hammad was admitted to Evercare Hospital Lahore. Dr. Imran Saeed successfully implanted the internal component of the cochlear device. The surgery went smoothly. After receiving post-operative care, Hammad was discharged in stable condition on January 24, 2025.
In six weeks, the external component of the cochlear implant will be installed, allowing Hammad to hear once again. Additionally, he will begin speech therapy sessions to improve his communication skills.
Hammad’s family expressed their gratitude as follows: "We are immensely grateful to you for giving our child the chance to hear again. This surgery was expensive and we couldn’t afford it. Your generosity has changed his life. We will forever be grateful for your support."
With his hearing restored, he will be able to learn, communicate, and thrive like never before. His family extends their gratitude to you for helping them during their time of need.
