Channapatna,which is 60 kms away from Banglore is famous for producing wooden toys.In every house there will be a toy maker.Those toys would really bring back our childhood memories.But only very few people know that this village is life changing for many peoples.
Normally people with vocal cancer lose their voice after surgery due to removal of vocal cord and normally voice prosthesis will be placed to retain their voice.And this vocal prosthesis has to be replaced every six months or one year and that would require of cost around 15000 to 20000 rupees.
Dr.Vishal Rao an Oncologist found that this surgery would be difficult for many peoples to do.So he went to Channapatna and approached a toy maker named Kushar Pasha , showed him the silicon Artificial Voice Box and asked him to make a device.There comes the Artificial Voice Box Inserter.We don't want to worry about the saftey because it is made up of Natural dye which is tissue friendly.And the cost is around 50 rupees.
It is life hope for many people!!!
