Hearing Loss attributed from EVAS
 
I was identified with a bilateral sensorineural hearing loss at the age of 2.5 years old with unknown etiology (parents & doctor suspected it may be from exposure of prenatal German measles or otoxin drugs). I grew up wearing hearing aids--very involved in academics and sports. I never used my hearing loss as a crutch but to only educate others about it and how to communicate with a deaf or hard of hearing person.

You keep looking around, and then you spot the fire truck coming up behind you on the street and making a turn. Read more about hearing aids and sound localization.
