Living with a hearing loss, it's part of you! Let's have an update...

It’s been a long time since I have done an up date on my hearing loss and life managing with this problem. However firstly I’ll change what I just said there the word “problem” as this issue is me, it’s the very same each and every day so I no longer look at this issue as a problem as it is part of me being Bradley. When I used to get sad and down about my hearing and believe you me that still happens at times but now, I am just more in control I think or like to think. My Mum would say to me “Yes you have a hearing problem, but it doesn’t change the lovely person you are, and the lovely things you do for people, it doesn’t change your face or your features…” After chatting with Mum on a down day, I always feel much better and after my Mum saying this and she has repeated this bless her to me many of times, I feel me and I do truly feel it’s part of me being me. I have days where I struggle and yes, I still wish things were different but I embrace what I have and count myself grateful and thankful, there are so many more people worse off than me and again for that I am truly thankful. This clip is something close to my heart of cause it’s talking about something I am very vulnerable towards, there I said it I am still quite sensitive when it comes to me hearing but I am getting better. But I can assure you I am stronger towards it and this is improving all the time. I’ll take you through more detail if you wish? I even touch on the hearing aids I choose to wear to keep me being me! Thank you sincerely for watching, it means such a great deal to me! 

Best wishes to you always! And from the bottom of my heart look after your hearing too!!!
