‘His Face Lit Up, and He Smiled Like Never Before’
Thirteen-year-old Jeremiah’s family no longer needs to raise their voices to communicate with him. Earlier this month, he received a new set of high-quality hearing aids courtesy of RYTHM Foundation’s Gift of Life (GOL) programme.“Jeremiah feels so much better than before. He can now hear sounds and voices. When he had the hearing aids put on for the first time, his face lit up, and he smiled like never before. He is happy and takes care of the hearing aids. He puts them on himself and puts them away carefully when he takes them off,” Madam Esther smiled cheerfully.Jeremiah has been motivated to learn more since getting the new devices fitted. He demonstrated his love for drawing and making origami during a recent visit to RYTHM’s Kuala Lumpur office.
“The Gift of Life programme has given my son the gift of hearing as he has never experienced, and we will always be grateful for that.”
