Comments on: A child of ‘Death’, by Kendra Pape-Green http://www.ihearya.org/2009/05/a-child-of-death-by-kendra-pape-green/ Spreading of hearing loss among Canadian youth Sat, 22 May 2010 00:26:15 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Fran http://www.ihearya.org/2009/05/a-child-of-death-by-kendra-pape-green/comment-page-1/#comment-89 Fran Sat, 22 May 2010 00:26:15 +0000 http://www.ihearya.org/?p=655#comment-89 Kendra, Your great aunt Joan said, "Fran, you have to read Kendra's article about her mom. It is great". I then had high expectations and didn't want to be disappointed. And, boy, was I not disappointed. Great work. It's difficult to describe and teach by reaching across without lecturing. You demonstrated empathy and understanding and then threw a punch of firm remonstrance. A lesson I won't forget for a long time. Congratulations and best of luck in your future. Kendra,

Mucho gracias, Bell. I dunno if you or anyone reading this would be interested, but since it's pretty relevant to the subject of hearing impaired people, you really have to get your hands on this if you can find it anywhere http://www.hbo.com/docs/programs/hearandnow/index.html http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0912587/ It's about a couple in their 60s or 70s who undergo undergo cochlear implant surgery and it's just a really good documentary. I sobbed. A lot. And although I'm aware that this is the same comment I left weeks ago, the sincerity still remains! :D This was really great. Mucho gracias, Bell.

What a beauiful article about your mother. I met your mother many years ago at the Canadain Hearing Society, as I am hard of hearing. I was struck by your mother's intelligence, passion and drive to be the best she could be. I met up with your mother last year in Newmarket for CHS picnic, and we got caught up after so many years away. She hasn't change a bit, just as driven and passisonate as always. One thing struck me about her though, she if very proud of her children. What a lovely lady you are, to have the maturity and compassion for your mother's hearing loss. Any mother would be so proud to have a daughter like you. You have a great future ahead of you...the world needs more people like you! Take care and the best of luck! Hello Kendra.
