Sudden Hearing Loss, Deafness, Cochlear Implant Journey

If you are going through hearing loss in any degree, just know you are not alone. I hope this video serves you in some way, whether that be to comfort you, educate you, motivate you, etc. YOU GOT THIS!

If you are not hard of hearing, you're still welcome here! Thank you for listening to my story and educating yourself about this communication disability. Your efforts are seen and appreciated!

If you have any questions I didn't address in this video, go ahead and comment them below.

Although this is very different than my usual content, I felt it was a story I needed to share. I try to speak out about my hearing loss and advocate for this community as much as I can, but I don't tend to post regular youtube videos on it. Let me know if this is something you'd like to hear more about!

The doctor who conducted my second cochlear implant:
