"Deaf for a Day" by John Barrowman video

I want to thank my friend and life coach, Christine Carver for pointing me to this video. The gentleman described feelings of frustration and isolation. This is what we who are deaf or living with hearing loss feel like on a daily basis. We get tired trying to communicate and navigating with hearing loss in a hearing world. I wish more people could experience what we do as John Barrowman did in order to help raise awareness and funds for Hearing Dogs.

    What a great video and article - I'd bet that a lot of hearing folks would be surprised to find out how tiring deaf life can be.
