Report

A course of classes with speech therapists, surdologists and psychologists helped the girl to improve her hearing skills.

Four-year-old Rayana has had no hearing since birth. A year ago she underwent cochlear implantation in her right ear. With the restoration of her hearing, the girl began to babble and make her first sounds, which she has not yet been able to combine into words. In order for Rayana to learn to speak and understand speech, she needs a course of auditory-verbal rehabilitation in a specialized center. And such a two-week complex of classes took place thanks to your support.

"Rehabilitation was going on intensively. My daughter attended all the classes with pleasure, tried to speak, but it didn't work. Since Rayana has a cochlear implant in only one ear, and the second ear has a poor quality hearing aid, her daughter's hearing is poor, she cannot react clearly and quickly to a sound or a question from a teacher. That is why the specialists decided to teach the child speech through dactel, i.e. sign language. Rayana has learned to communicate well and has expanded her vocabulary a little. Thank you all for helping our family, I appreciate the support of all concerned people and thank you sincerely," Anfisa, the girl's mother, said.

Rayana will continue her speech development lessons at home with her mother. Specialists have given the family all the recommendations for strengthening the acquired skills and further development of speech. Thank you for supporting the Gimalov family!

About the campaign

Rayana needs rehabilitation to learn to speak after receiving hearing implants

Rayana has been hearing impaired since birth and therefore cannot speak. After the cochlear implant is installed, the girl needs auditory-verbal rehabilitation in a specialized center.

In the village where Rayana lives with her mother there is neither a speech therapist nor a surdologist. It is three hundred kilometers to Ufa, where the girl could be helped in speech production. That is why the family's last hope is for specialized centers where children like Rayana are taught to speak and perceive spoken language.

Until the age of three – that is when the cochlear implantation was performed – Rayana could not utter anything at all. She communicated with her mother and friends from kindergarten only through gestures. With the restoration of hearing in her right ear, she began to babble and make her first sounds, which she cannot yet combine into words. The girl also began to dance to music.

In order for Rayana to learn to speak and give up sign language, she needs our support. Let's help her get into auditory-verbal rehabilitation!
