Happy birthday to me!
This is a blog highlighting the ups and downs I have faced since finding out I am hard of hearing. It has been a whirlwind journey to sound and I have learned a lot about myself and the prejudices of the world. I am sharing these things in the hopes that maybe it will help someone else feel less alone.

Today's My Birthday!!! But...
Today is my 23rd birthday. It was fine. I got cookie cake at work and my coworker made me a homemade cheesecake which is my favorite. But being a year older got me to thinking about where I'll be in another 20 years. I'm twenty-three and my hearing has declined so much, does that mean I'll be deaf by the time I'm in my forties? If that happens how will I communicate with my family and friends? How will I deal with being deaf? It's my birthday I shouldn't be thing such morbid thoughts. If it happens I'm sure I'll deal with like I deal with everything, fret over for a little while and eventually find a suitable solution. I'm going to enjoy the rest of my day. I do love birthdays!
