Huh?
Say what? Huh? one more time? I’m sorry?
Sometimes I feel like that’s all I say anymore. It’s been almost 6 years since I was diagnosed with a brain tumor and had my first brain surgery, thus, 6 years since I’ve heard a single sound from my left ear. I suppose it’s a small price to pay considering that a large brain tumor was removed from my brain, but sometimes I just grow so absolutely frustrated with my inability to hear fully. I live my life looking around frantically wondering if anyone is trying to talk to me. No matter where a sound comes from, it always feels like it’s coming from my right (good ear). I fear what the future brings when nature takes it course and the hearing in my “good” ear deteriorates.
I try to maintain a positive attitude and count my blessings, and I fully understand that so many people have much larger challenges, but I’m allowed to vent once in awhile, right? Right? Did you say right? Huh?

It’s been 10 years this month since i had my AN removed and I can still relate to what your feeling. Keep venting when you need to and stay positive because what we lost should not define who we are….
