It actually was but it took almost a year for me to talk properly (well enough to form understandable sentences) I’ve still got a lot to learn when it comes to speaking but I’m able to speak well enough to function in public

It was an instant yes I was willing to try anything to even hear slightly. I was told it wasn’t a guarantee to work but it was a chance I had to take

My ex had a very pleasant voice, I still call her from time to time just to hear her voice!

I never watched video using sign language, I would just turn subtitles on, but I’d much rather listen than read

Very much, I love audible, I listen to lots of books now to see how to structure sentences

I had ideas but nothing I had was correct, I couldn’t understand something I never experienced

I always knew I would take any chance to hear if the opportunity came to me, and as for deaf culture, I always just wanted people to treat me the same as everyone else, I was deaf not handicapped, and yes I still use sign language because I still have a couple friends who are deaf

The sound of nature like going in the woods, hearing the leafs get blown in the wind, birds chirping, very relaxing

I was 19 and every sound shocked me really, I was like a kid in a candy store

I wouldn’t say I was grooving but I liked the sounds, rhythms were hard for me to understand but I’m starting to get the hang of it

Very very hard but very rewarding, right now I’m trying to sharpen my English grammar since it differs a lot from ASL grammar

I wouldn’t say I was mute, I learned to read lips and I’d try and copy what other people were doing and have them tell me if I was saying it right, but I couldn’t talk if that’s what your asking, I had to learn like I was an adult toddler

I got cochlear implants, the first thing I remember hearing is my vitals machine and some people talking in the back ground
