I shared the content of this story with the “Parent Affinity Group” at the Ellis School during a virtual meeting commemorating Black History Month on February 17, 2022.

Child Hearing Loss
We all know the ramifications of age. We know it brings with it, aging tends to bring HEARING LOSS. But there is a population that falls victim to the world of silence at or near birth so that they never learn the total beauty that nature and life has to offer. The total or partial inability to hear sounds classified as mild, moderate, severe and profound. While MILD HEARING LOSS is the retention of some sense of hearing… incapable of hearing sounds like whispered conversations, dripping water, leaves rustling, feet shuffling on floors/carpets, and birds chirping, MODERATE HEARING LOSS is a more acute loss in one or both ears… they may be unable to hear sounds like normal conversation or the ringing of a telephone. Those classified with SEVERE HEARING LOSS can hear some sounds, but very poorly. They may not be able to hear someone speaking, even if they are using a normal voice. They may be able to hear only very loud sounds. PROFOUND HEARING LOSS designates the ability to hear only very loud speech or loud sounds. People with severe hearing loss cannot hear speech at a conversational level and for people with profound hearing loss, loud sounds are mainly only perceived as vibrations.
