Donate for Mustafa’s Cochlear Implant Surgery
Muhammad Mustafa's Story
Drowning in the depths of silence, Mustafa exists in a realm untouched by the everyday melodies we often overlook. The symphony of life remains a mystery to him, an elusive treasure he yearns to unlock. Yet, his hopes are shrouded in a cruel reality—his parents, burdened by financial constraints, cannot afford the life-altering cochlear implant surgery that holds the promise of sound. In this moment of desperation, your humble contribution of just $10 holds the power to transcend the barriers of silence and bestow upon Mustafa the profound gift of hearing. We urge you to come forward and donate for Mustafa’s Cochlear Implant Surgery, paving the way for a future filled with limitless opportunities.
Three-year-old Muhammad Mustafa, a resident of Nowshera, was born without the ability to hear. His parents noticed this and took him to the hospital for a consultation when he was a year old. After a thorough evaluation and some diagnostic tests, the doctor diagnosed him with sensorineural hearing loss. They have advised him to undergo cochlear implant surgery, which will enable him to hear. A cochlear implant device holds the promise of granting Muhammad Mustafa the ability to hear and explore the world of sounds for the very first time. The implant consists of two components, which will be surgically placed in two separate procedures, with a two-week interval between them. This transformative journey can bring a symphony of new experiences to Mustafa’s life.
Mustafa lives in a joint family of eight members. His father is a daily wager and earns just PKR 25,000 per month. He has no other source of income. A cochlear implant is an expensive surgery. Due to financial constraints, he is unable to afford the surgical expenses. His father said in a depressed tone:
“Every time I see his face, devoid of sound and emotion, my heart shatters into pieces. He battles with the frustration of being unable to communicate due to his hearing loss. I wish with all my being to help him, but my own financial circumstances stand as a barrier. Your compassionate contribution holds the power to unlock the priceless gift of sound, enabling him to embrace the world, form deep connections, and flourish in life.”

Muhammad Mustafa's Story
Muhammad Mustafa, 3 years old from Nowshera, KPK, whose world has been enveloped in silence since birth due to congenital hearing loss. Recognizing his inability to respond to sounds, medical tests confirmed the presence of this challenge. For Muhammad Mustafa, the gateway to hearing lay in cochlear implant surgery. Yet, financial constraints stood as a barrier, preventing his family from accessing this crucial treatment.
Muhammad Mustafa faced a world devoid of sound, hindering his communication and learning abilities. The financial limitations cast a shadow over his family, making the necessary surgery seem unattainable.
Amidst these challenges, Muhammad Mustafa's case reached Transparent Hands. Through the kindness of donors, a glimmer of hope emerged for Muhammad Mustafa. This support enabled him to undergo the life-changing cochlear implant surgery at Ali Medical Complex, Islamabad, on 6 October 2023. Dr. Jawwad Ahmed adeptly performed the surgery, installing the internal component. His discharge the following day marked the commencement of his journey towards hearing restoration.
Muhammad Mustafa embarked on a transformative journey towards sound. The scheduled installation of the external implant in six weeks, combined with planned speech therapy sessions, aimed to gradually reintroduce him to the world of sound and language.
Guided by Dr. Jawwad Ahmed's expertise and the promise of an external implant along with subsequent speech therapy, Muhammad Mustafa stands on the brink of rediscovering the joy of sound. The financial accessibility of this life-altering surgery, made possible by the generosity of donors, signifies a pivotal moment in Muhammad Mustafa's life—a step towards embracing a world filled with the richness of sound, fostering newfound avenues for connection, communication, and learning.
