Synopsis "My Hard of Hearing Life: Stories From Behind the Hearing Aids (in English)"
Every year, the number of deaf or hard of hearing people increases. The World Health Organization estimates there are 350 million people on the planet with hearing loss. You probably know someone with less than perfect hearing, and are sometimes confused about his/her behavior. Have you ever wanted an insider's view of what it's like to be functionally deaf or hard of hearing? Wonder no more - "My Hard of Hearing Life: Stories From Behind the Hearing Aids" is a book of short stories that pulls back the curtain of silence, and shows what's going on in the mind of a person with hearing loss. Most of the stories use humor to educate and inform. By the time you finish reading this book, you'll have a good understanding of what it's like to have a hearing loss. Deaf, hard of hearing, or hearing impaired? No matter the label, if you have a hearing loss, you'll be able to identify with the stories in this book. If your friends and family don't "get" your deafness, encourage them to read this book. It will open their eyes, and they will understand that having a hearing loss is not only about asking people to repeat themselves, but is actually an entirely different way of experiencing the world. "My Hard of Hearing Life" unveils the secret thoughts of a hard of hearing person as she interacts with the hearing world. The misunderstandings that sometimes result between a person with hearing loss, and a "normal" can be either hilarious or sobering. Be assured, there is a reason for the "odd" behavior of your hard of hearing friend. Scroll up, click the buy button, and read this book. You'll never look at a person wearing hearing aids in the same way.
