MDJunction to me

djfilippone"Before I found this site I felt so alone.  Watching my daughter struggle with IH and being treated like she had two heads from doctors.    I have plenty of family and friends but there was nobody that really knew what she was going through.
I not only have support and love from others who will listen and share their
story, but I have made some forever friends.  Having this support site does make a difference to many.

Hi everyone,

I was born profound hearing loss. Hear nothing the first 7yrs and then i got Cochlear Implant when i was 8yrs old and my brain cant pick up what the words suppose to sounds like. Too late to learn to listen but it helps me to hear other things like hearing people hear everything.

I went to hearing school and it was hard life. My parents didnt want to send me to deaf school.

I have other problem, like klippel-fiel syndrome and sexual abused.

Hope any of you want to be my friend. I am from Australia.

Kym
