Rather than listening to the beat of songs, Abigail has been trained to match the vibrations she feels with her feet. Her precise calculations have led her to pulling off impressive moves! Still, Abigail’s Mom was vocal about the fact that their goal was to get the 7-year-old a hearing aid — but they needed help. They made this known on “Onua Showtime with Nana Ama McBrown,” a talk show in Ghana.

As fate would have it, a woman named Joyce watched the episode. She lives in New York, but she is originally from Ghana. When she heard little Abigail’s story, she was moved to help. After reaching out to McBrown, she was able to donate $5,000 for the hearing aid and $400 for insurance so that it can be replaced or repaired, if needed.
