Thank you again for all that you do to make the Fondren's Zippity Doo DahÂ® Weekend a success for the sick and injured children of Mississippi through the Batson Children's Hospital AND beyond, via membership in the Children's Miracle Network!
Hearing loss, also known as hearing impairment, is a partial or total inability to hear. A deaf person has little to no hearing. Hearing loss may occur in one or both ears. In children hearing problems can affect the ability to learn spoken language and in adults it can cause work related difficulties. In some people, particularly older people, hearing loss can result in loneliness.
Some deaf folks don't talk at all, some do....It's depending how they were raised... I sure can talk like a hearing person but some hearing people knew I am deaf cause of my voice which sounds like I have a cold or something....That's what I was told... But other than that, most of them were surprised that I am deaf even through I talk so well....
