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.

Raheema’s journey was not solely about learning to hear; it was also about finding her voice. Each therapy session became a stepping stone, leading her toward the mastery of language and communication. With patience and unwavering determination, she began to open doors to a world where her thoughts and feelings could be shared and understood. Through this incredible process, Raheema fostered deeper connections and enriched her journey of self-discovery.
