Story Behind The Book

I grew up hard of hearing but it was never recognized by anyone but the school nurse. I learned to adapt, read lips and body language. As a musician, I sang and played my guitar and had to give that up in the early 1990's. Always the writer, I started a column in 1998 and became a reporter in 2000 and got a successful cochlear implant in 2002. The book will encourage those who are working to accept any challenge and see hope and give them courage to perservere, no matter the circumstand.

Reviews

Like the journalist she is, Thompson offers insights from all perspectives. This wonderfully written book gives voice to the more than 20 million Americans, including me, who are hard of hearing, and anyone who has felt isolated because they are different.-- Sharon Baldacci, author of A Sundog Moment
