Hello everyone, outside is really cloudy and pouring a little of some raindrops. Really casual as everyday down in West-side. I been thinking lot about having cochlear Implant putting in behind my ear and able to hear . I was born very sick with kind of uncommon deadly disease are called Cytomegalovirus (CMV) and doctor told my mother that I am capable of losing my hearing. When I grow into an child and my hear became loss prossgreive. We found the reason because of the damaged cells in the hair nerves that sent signals to brain which sounds sent through the brain and don't get the repond that how it makes a deafness as hearing loss.
I really don't understand why people against those because of risk, implanting of losing life. I do understand how deaf cherish their community as deaf and using sign language. For the implanting quotes what people thinks cochlear implant has different thousand reason like , a person using it for not want to be part of deaf commuity nor another like commuicate needs , there is more of reasonsable they wear cochlear implants.
For my reason I want to tell you why I am getting it because of communicate and I am not losing the proud of using the sign language which my husband is deaf and completely understood what the full opportunity is about. I can use speech almost not 100% but I can said round 75 % that I improve since 18 months old I went to school and use a very old hearing aids with the unit belt on my body. I been wearing it for many years until seven years old I was punished by the teacher not listening my name was calling and sent me to audiology clinic and found my hearing got worse at seven years old. That is way found because of the damaged hair nerves that I explained recently the paragraph I talked about how I lost my hearing.
I noticed lot of hate crimes about in american is very highest between deaf community against the cochlear implant meaning they have their own reason but they has civil rights too. But the point is for human like us wanting it is fine but with forcedly without permission is abusing the civil rights.
This story I am trying to show or share with you everybody what is reality about in the world is reckless meaning we cant control unless law approves for example A.G Bell that could fight against our rights we have our own the hope we asked for. Because Something in the point of people gets wrong idea about deaf's behavior like against without making a point discuss is unhealthy for deaf community.
I chose to be in the general open discuss and not in closed society solutions because I have lips and hands to use the language and I am proud of it who I am. If anyone has the issue with me of any kind random. That is fine because they don't know what I surely see in my own previews. The consequences they makes any words like hate crimes or any making of this kind judgement against what I wanting for myself. No one stopping me from taking the pages to turn and keep going on and on.
Thank you,
