off much deprived limelight

Sigh...

This blog is about little Siti Aisya Syazreen, a 3-and-a-half-year-old who has got no eyes, literally...Little Aisya suffers from a very rare syndrome called Fraser Syndrome, where children born have got no eyelids, and some even with no eyes...

Darling Aisya is one such little girl...

Her story appeared in The Star on the 24th December, 2006 (StarMag):-

When I first met Aisya, I was shocked, and I was overwhelmed...Honestly, I wanted to just reach out and hug her, but I was also afraid...Afraid that if I did that, I would be hurting this little girl, who looked so fragile, her body might snap in half if I so much as touched her...I was afraid, because I had never seen someone like her before...

Aisya's dad is the only one working in the family, and he recently lost his job...You can just imagine how difficult it is. Raising children is never easy, but with an extremely special child like Aisya, a stable income is all the more neccesary...

Inti International College Penang has taken the initiative to raise some money for her within the circle of students...Final results have not been finalised yet...

I am appealing to anyone out that who has some extra to spare to think of little Aisya and her family...It doesn't have to be big; remember, as cliche as it is, it's the thought that counts...Every gesture will help...

Think people, how would you feel if you cannot see, and cannot hear well? Think how you feel if everywhere you go, people are afraid of you? Think how you would feel if even your hands look different?

Because that is what Aisya is going through everyday...She can't see, she can't hear well, and even her fingers are deformed...

I am appealing to the human side of all those out that: Spare your change for little Aisya...

I can be contacted at 016-5422774 for further details on how to contribute to the family...I won't be dealing with any of your money as I will put you in touch with the family directly.

Cheerio...
