As i moved each marble I also looked at the lady who was testing me in the other room through a window, my Mother quickly raised this - Mrs Stallard the lady, then quickly pulled the curtains. I then restarted the marble game again! I remeber feelin insecure then, unaware of what was going on. She called my mother aside and told her the news. 'Lisa is showing a hearing loss of moderate to severe - shes quite bright actually as I can se she was watching my actions and copying in line with my movements. I knew she was deaf the minute I met her - she gave me an empty expression - which most deaf children do'.

It is true, when one loses one sense; other senses take over. When you lose your hearing, you use your eyes more; I am thinking. You feel more too.You actually become more 'clever'; if you know what I mean! Ha!
Words written here (in this space/your place, Lisa); make me aware of my own feelings (in some ways) and I am sure others equally so.
