- Zlata Kuzmina was born with no cochlear nerve in her left ear and only a small nerve on the right. Doctors in Ukraine, where she was born, did not realize she couldn't hear. Eventually, after moving to the U.S., her parents, Diana and Oleh, were referred to MUSC to test her hearing. MUSC ENT surgeon Ted McRackan, M.D., and audiologist Amy Noxon, AuD, determined that Zlata could benefit from a cochlear implant. After surgery Noxon activated the implant to see if Zlata could hear sounds.
This is wonderful! This absolutely beautiful little girl has been given what I, and most people, take for granted. I love the look on her face!
Those little hands…..”what kind of sorcery is this” and turning to see what is going on. I’m so happy they could help her.
What a beautiful thing to watch. The therapist is an angel in disguise and the parents are truly amazing.Hope we can follow her progress.💖💖💖
*I'm way to sensitive for this...ABSOLUTELY breathtaking to me..beautiful!*
What a wonderful story❣️ Little Zlota (apologies for spelling) is so beautiful - the look on her face when she hears sounds for the first time is absolutely priceless. ❤❤
Thank-you for sharing this with us. So much of what pops upon as "suggested" on TH-cam is negative and unedifying, this was refreshing and encouraging to see. Best wishes for the little girl and her family.
The 'provide assistance early to facilitate normal milestone attainment' thing applies to Mobility Aids too. As a Wheelchair Therapist we encouraged referrals for kids as young as possible so that they could do the whole explore-and-be-independent thing at an appropriate age. It is always frustrating when kids are not referred until the age of 4 or five (ie parent accepts that mobility will be needed for school) because previously the parents had not wanted a wheelchair around due to stigma/ accepting that child actually needs one.
Her reaction was so beautiful! 🥹🥹
Hey,...How sweet it is. I am partially deaf. I wear 2 hearing aids. I feel for her.
She's adorable!
Amazing that kid was gifted by this technology I really want to appreciate the guys who found this
Her wonder at something so many of us take for granted. Lovely.
Her name means 'A Golden Girl' in Ukrainian. Many thanks to the medical professionals for their efforts!
A pure delight!
The look of amazement on her face. Wonderful.
That was so cute how she put her hands up to let them know she could hear she was so surprised🎉😅
beautiful 😢 ❤
She is adorable ☺️
GOD Bless you Zlata, you and your family!
What a beautiful little girl. I love it. She like what I hear that.
Thats so lovely
My question is they use to use Cochlear cadaver, an actual real Cochlear cadaver for implants, why in the world would you use a massive size device instead of a real Cochlear cadaver that will work great and not require a person to stick a large device on their head and ear? What's going on here, I mean if it's tve onky option that's one thing, but it's not the only option.
It might work initially, but one of the major issues with transplanting organic material is rejection.
If you put in a donor nerve or organ from a cadaver, the patient's immune system would be able to tell that the donor cells were foreign and the patient would have to be on immuno-supressing drugs for the rest of their life in order to stop their immune system from attacking and destroying it. On top of that, much of the time those drugs fail at stopping the body from rejecting the donor organ permanently.
There's also the problem of supplying enough of the donor organs. The waitlist for donor organs is extremely long compared to just being able to manufacture an implant whenever one is needed.
I know ASL from my interpreter Ms. Rose!

Sweet little girl.
Dat happened in my life! I was taken to the sound booth and played super Mario when I had to press a button and the computer would animate
When I first got hearing aids I wish it was a slow process turning up for me because I was startled when I got hearing aids entering middle school, and for me my reaction was like a child's hearing normal for the first time in over 9 years because I got diagnosed with hearing lose when I was two. I was the second eldest pediatric patients at my client and the elder pediatric patients are considered more adapted, but because I'm also autistic I was a lot less verbal at the time of going into middle school so I was nonverbal for days and had to take as I called back then "ear breaks" every hour multiple times sometimes because I wasn't used to hearing normal now my hearing breaks are maximum of 4-3 times a day but they are longer that also helps in combination with my ironically hyper sensory processing disorder due to my autism, and discovering full music for the first time helped too.
hi, I am living in Ethiopia my 5 years old son loss hearing both side of ear at the age of 3 he loss confutable as after loss hearing. Peals helping my son if you have a way
Have you worked with a doctor or hearing specialist close to you? Are you near Addis Ababa?
I wonder what it actually sounds like though, what do they hear. It can’t be the same as normal hearing. Better than none though
It takes time for their brain to make the connections necessary, but it is far superior to silence
A wonderful thing.
bravo!
Às vezes eu acho que horas vc chega de casa da mãe dela e não tem aula de ❤❤❤❤😂😂🎉🎉😮😮😮😅😅
New world opens ip for her 😊
If you want her to sing, she’ll need accommodations for that,.. Ive heard that implants are very artificial sounding and extremely tinny
Yes,but with patience & practice it becomes very simply…a miracle! I have one!
@@DippyHippie I have hearing aids so i could tell you that for musicians, they must sound perfect immediately! I if its tinny, or even a slight distortion in any tone its a major problem and must be resolved immediately. They need to be perfect
After all the years of having Menieres diseases and constant ear ringing , it is nice to sit in a quiet restaurant without anything bothering me. Even the fullness in the bad ear is hardly noticeable. And the constant ear ringing is gone..Took 4weeks thanks Dr Liam Ogbebor Herbal centre TH-cam channel for the tinnitus program and herbal ear drop treatment and I hope it stops for everyone else sooner.-;;:
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏💞💞💞
