and this is all (or almost) FREE!! We tend to forget how lucky we are. As a French national and a Hong Kong resident, and as a mother of a 6 months deaf baby myself, my family is fortunate enough to have access to the best-in-class health support, excellent medical care and infrastructure. I spoke to his mother who didn't know what to do and who to turn to, and I felt the need to help them. This would cost USD 30,000 including a trip abroad to get the surgery done (I myself have done research for my daughter and no kidding, it really cost that much). The longer he waits to get the implant, the more irreversible speech and development delay will occur.
Long story short, Haiti does not have the proper medical infrastructure and the government support to help this little boy get a cochlear implant surgery that would give him the ability to hear and speak. Raising a funding campaign as I came across the story of Marc Alexander, 18 month baby boy born in Haiti and diagnosed bilaterally deaf (both ears).
