Support Raheema’s Hearing Restoration

Raheema Bibi's Story

A bright and spirited three-year-old girl named Raheema from Kashmoor is spending her life in complete silence due to her auditory inability to respond to sounds around her. Her world is empty without the familiar voices and laughter of loved ones. Like a normal child, Raheema also wants to own the precious gift of hearing, a chance to fully immerse herself in the symphony of life that surrounds her.

Raheema’s life took a turn when her family sought medical advice, hoping for a solution that would grant their daughter the ability to hear. It was through this journey that they discovered the transformative power of cochlear implant surgery. This surgical procedure involves the implantation of a device that bypasses the damaged parts of the ears, directly stimulating the auditory nerve and unlocking the world of sound for Raheema.

Do you want to give the precious gift of hearing?

The financial reality Raheema’s family faces fills their hopes and dreams with uncertainty. She lives in a rented house with her parents. Her father is only earning a hand in the family with a monthly income of 35,000 PKR. His father struggles to make ends meet. After paying the rent and utility bills, they have limited funds for food and day-to-day expenses. His father has no other source of income, so he cannot afford the surgical expenses for Raheema’s life-saving surgery.

Raheema’s father carries the weight of his daughter’s silent world in his heart. He said in a low voice:

“My love for Raheema knows no bounds, and I dream of a future where she can freely communicate, deeply connect with loved ones, and embrace the world with open arms. It is only possible with financial support. “

Raheema Bibi's Story

Raheema, a 3-year-old girl from Kashmoor, has been mute since birth. She couldn't hear the enchanting melodies of the world around her. Raheema's life took a hopeful turn when her family sought medical advice, leading them to explore the possibility of cochlear implant surgery.

Yet, her father faced a daunting obstacle: the financial burden of the surgical expenses. Determined to find a solution, he contacted Transparent Hands. Through the generous support of donors, Raheema's dreams began to take shape.

Raheema was admitted to GIMS Hospital, Gambat, where Dr. Maqbool, a skilled surgeon, installed the internal component of the cochlear implant on February 20, 2024. After two days, she was discharged from the hospital, brimming with newfound hope.

Guided by the expertise of dedicated healthcare professionals and the unwavering kindness of the donors, Raheema embarked on a path of rediscovery. Within a span of six weeks, the external implant was installed, accompanied by scheduled speech therapy sessions that promised to unlock the wonders of sound once more.
