Short video demystifies deafness, created by Amy Sargent. Be sure to check out her website and her book, "A Survival Guide for New Deafies". It's excellent for anyone who has lost their hearing, or has a loved one who has lost their hearing.

I highly recommend this book. I have a copy and wish something like this was available when I started going deaf.
Raised on the Southern Oregon Coast, now retired on the Southern Oregon Coast. I was a hard of hearing child who grew up to be a deafened adult. I share and write about deafness, hearing loss and other things I find interesting. I am a 50 something year old woman who could be anyone's mother, grandmother or friend. I've traveled the U.S., and I've lived in Europe. I'm currently residing near the beach with Fabulous Husband and 11 year old son. ~ Joyce Edmiston
