They found out when I was a baby I had hearing issues so I got aids as soon as I could even tho I took them out more than used them.I wen't to therapist for several years to learn to speak without stuttering or sluring words,it helped a fair amount but when i'm tired or in a hurry things run together.Reading was all so hard cause I have vision issues as well.The doctors finely agreed it was because of me being very much a premmie plus at that time they used pure oxygen to help me breath for a long time,this was in 1947 when they had no clue it caused problems.All this caused me all kinds of trouble in school from understanding the teachers to kids giving me a hard time because of my deafness.It was strongly suggested to mom I go to special ed class's but she wouldn't do it cause she really thought main streaming was better.What it did was make me a target for every bully in school,so finely I beat the crap out of one of them then I was in the office getting punished for it.I told her and the princeaple what was going on..nothing was done with the exception of the lecture of not fighting in school.Walk away they said,easyr said than done as we all know.I lip read well plus I started als but never finished.Life has been an adventure for sure both good and bad..I just wonder what would have happened if I had gotten the right kine of help when I needed it?To far down the road now to try new things.
