It was only in the delivery room in Fergana that the mother learned that Tullo was missing fingers on his right hand. The family accepted their son as he was, deciding that he would live a full life.
Today, Khadiyatulloh is an active and curious teenager. He practices karate and swimming and is interested in IT technologies. But the older he gets, the more often he encounters "barriers."
At home, Khadiyatulloh is affectionately called Tullo — "Golden One."
At eleven, the boy is sharply aware of how he is different from others. At a regular school, the stares and questions from his peers make him embarrassed and cause him to hide his right hand. Psychological discomfort interferes with socialization, and everyday little things — like buttoning a sleeve or holding objects with both hands — remind him of his limitations.
In 2024, thanks to the help of the foundation, the boy received an active prosthetic arm. Tullo experienced what it feels like to have fully functional use of both hands. But over the year, the boy grew significantly, and the old prosthesis became too small.
Assistance in acquiring a new active prosthetic will change Tullo's life.
Firstly, the prosthesis restores balance and stability, protecting the spine from curvature (scoliosis) and maintaining correct posture.
Secondly, Khadiyatulloh's dream is to become an IT specialist. An active prosthesis will allow him to handle technology more confidently, develop fine motor skills, and work on a computer on equal footing with his peers.
Thirdly, with a modern active prosthesis, a “special feature” turns into a “superpower.” The boy will stop hiding his hand, feel more confident at school, and be able to forget any awkwardness in front of others.
Let's help Tullo become a “superhero”!
