A woman born without a voice may have been 'the only 20-year-old in the world' with this rare condition when surgeons in Missouri stepped up to help.
for children without access, found a pediatric surgeon to help Janiyah, but her surgery was delayed for two years because of the COVID-19 pandemic. That made her an adult patient at the time of the operation.
Janiyah and Janice traveled to the U.S. in February and met Dr. Eisenbeis for the first time. Five days later, she woke up from surgery and coughed — a good sign that the surgery was successful. "I didn’t know I had this volume of voice," Janiyah said a few weeks after surgery. "This is me now, stronger and more confident."
For Janice, who always worried that her daughter wouldn’t be able to call out to her when something was wrong, the surgery was nothing short of a miracle. "My daughter can speak… you can understand the words that she’s saying, and she can sing," added her mother. "To God be the glory."It was the first time the St. Louis hospital partnered with the World Pediatric Project. The nonprofit pays to bring patients and their families to the U.S., while the doctors who treat them write off their fees.
