Four years later after a hearing son of deaf parents was born, the time was right. His parents felt ready to explore the option and made the decision to go ahead with surgery for him in Brazil. Last week, he had his hearing inactivated indefinitely b...y removing both cochleae from the ears. He became profoundly deaf like his parents. They have been immensely blessed with the choice they made.

Oh, what a great story! People are hungry for stories. It’s part of our very being. Storytelling is a form of history, of immortality too. It goes from one generation to another. Just too perfect! I'll tell that exact story to fool people. Thanks!
I forgot to mention that a British deaf leader Paddy Ladd said, "The deaf community regards the birth of each and every deaf child as a precious gift"
