In February 2019, Lam (then three-year-old) received a cochlear implant. One year after the activation of his CI, he has made remarkable progress. Lam is one of ten children with profound hearing loss, for whom the Hear the World Foundation is donating the latest cochlear implant, the costs of the surgery, and long-term audiological follow-up care, through the HearVietnam program.
