Abu Bakar's Story

Meet Abu Bakar, an innocent 2-year-old boy from Shahdadkot, who can’t hear. Upon noticing his inability to hear, his parents took him to a nearby hospital and received a consultation from a doctor. The doctor conducted some medical tests and diagnosed Abu Bakar with congenital sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL). The doctor recommended cochlear implant surgery that will enable him to hear and speak. It was shocking news for his parents and now it has been a constant source of worry for them. As he grows, the silence that surrounds him becomes a more challenging barrier, preventing him from fully experiencing the world and connecting with those around him. However, the cost of the surgery is beyond his family’s financial means.

If Abu Bakar doesn’t receive the cochlear implant surgery soon, the consequences can be severe. He will continue to live in silence, unable to develop the ability to hear and speak. The isolation he experiences is heartbreaking for his family, who want nothing more than to help him engage with the world.

Abu Bakar lives in a small mud house with his parents and two siblings. His father, the sole provider for the family, works long hours as a farmer and just makes PKR 20,000 monthly. Moreover, the family is burdened with a loan of PKR 170,000. With his meager monthly income, he hardly manages to pay for the utility bills and other living expenses. The family is surviving in extreme poverty and can’t afford the costly surgery. With hopes in their hearts, Abu Bakar’s parents reached out to Transparent Hands and asked us for help.

His parents described their heartfelt plea as follows:

“We just want Abu Bakar to hear, speak, and enjoy his childhood. It’s heartbreaking to see him struggle to hear and respond to us. His life is filled with hardships. We request your help in this time of need.”
