💬 Hello there! 👋🏽 We are an Ethiopian 🇪🇹 family living in Qatar. 🇶🇦 This is my son Simon’s story. 👉🏽 Simon was born in Qatar on November 3, 2016. Through early hearing screening, it was found that he had severe to profound sensorineural hearing loss in both ears. Hearing aids were not helping him, his doctors recommended cochlear implants. When we decided for AB, we did not know how effective the implants would be. But over time, we realized that we made the right choice. At first, the idea of subjecting Simon to the operation and the risk of complications was very scary. But the doctor reminded us that the sooner we implanted, the better and faster he would respond. We did not want to delay and deprive him of this opportunity which may allow him to hear and lead a normal life like any child his age. After the successful operation in April 2018, we noticed that he became very responsive to the sounds around him. He loved to explore and see where sounds came from. Simon has been attending speech and rehabilitation therapy where he is learning so much. Now he is hearing very well, and speaking normally like any other child in his age. As parents we are very happy. We would like to say thank you 🙏🏽 AB 💗
