She was born with a rare genetic condition called Wardenburg Syndrome, Rebecca Chogtaa Dumeh has blue eyes, she was deaf and could not speak due to the condition.
Dumeh whose story went viral two years ago turned 5 years old in March 2021.
At age three, Dumeh needed surgery and other therapies to treat her rare condition.
The Afi Antonio Foundation and Foundation for Children With Hearing Loss in South Africa raised funds to perform a Cochlear implant surgery for her, and through speech therapy enable her to hear and develop speech.
The charity collaborated to raise $34,000 to perform one ear surgery and pay for her living expenses for six months in South Africa.
The surgery was done for one ear because the two charities could not raise the $50,000 amount needed for both ears then.
