Navigating the Silence: My Journey from Hearing Loss to Deafness

Everyone's journey with hearing loss is different, but here is a piece of my experience from hearing loss to sudden deafness. Thank goodness cochlear implants were available, that brought me back to life. Here are some national organizations that might be of help to you:

Hello Liza, thank you for sharing and going into details of your story. I just became aware of sudden hearing loss. and no one fully understood what caused it, my hearing loss was gradual but my right ear was very sudden. I even had vertigo when it happen. My left ear was more gradual and the doctors have no clue what caused it. I was told I may need a cochlear implant on my left ear as well. I know what you mean when your world became smaller. I felt depressed, alone, angry, and frustrated. It also get so brain drained for reading people's lips. It can really take a lot out of you. I think that is one of the biggest reasons I stay to myself. Great video and a great topic.

Usually they don't know what causes it. Sigh. But here we are, onward!
