His diagnosis is a bilateral sensorineural hearing loss of the third degree. Only earphones can help to this little child, their cost is UAH 100,320.

Parents noticed that Kirill didn't respond to speech and didn't try to speak, in his early childhood. However, the doctors assured that there were no reasons to worry. They said that the child is completely healthy, develops according to his age. Nevertheless, even after he was starting to go to kindergarten, the kid remained silent despite constant communication with parents, developing classes and reading bedtime stories. Doctors could not make a diagnosis for a long time. At the age of three years, it became clear that he has large hearing loss. Kiryusha was diagnosed with bilateral sensorineural hearing loss of the third degree.

By three years of age, a boy put on earphones and began to go to individual lessons three times a week. Thanks to these studies and high-quality earphones, the child finally began to talk and even learned to read at five years. This year, seven-year-old Kirill entered the first class in a regular school - after the treatment, his level of development and speech allow this. However, the earphones have to be changed to more powerful ones, so that the hearing remains at an acceptable level and the child could fully study and communicate. For the purchase of two devices, we need UAH 100,320. For the family this is too big amount. Kirill's mother appeals to everyone with request to help her child to hear this world.
