Let go back where I left off about hearing loss in my past, I know that I am starting to feel like Christmas mood from my last blog post. We all have to help each other during the holiday with hearing loss.
After my parents found out that I have hearing loss when I was 3 years old, my parents decided to test my sister Beth. She was tested too. My sister has hearing loss too, but she is different than me. She has one good ear and other ear is not good.
For me to be different from my sister, my sister likes to read a lot with better reading skills than me. She doesn’t use computer a lot like me. She also has trouble seeing from her vision. I don’t read a lot of books since I have trouble understanding reading books. I like to use computer and play games than her. Since she has bad vision in one eye, I am her taxi driver whenever she needs my help. Since I am oldest sister, I love to help my sisters and families.
In speech, my sister has a better speech than me. I had to go a lot of speech therapies than her when we were young. Since she has a better speech and reading skills than me, she helped me a lot to pronounce certain words when I had trouble pronounce them.
I am not upset that my sister doesn’t have a lot of trouble with her hearing loss like me, but she had difficult childhood in her life. We both are the same with our disabilities. We are sisters being together and help each other.
