I have known some deaf people some that could not speak and carried note pads to communicate in my time, and all were amazing people. One was amazing with machinery, he could lay his hands on a machine and find bearings that were failing that no one else could, before they failed. To be able to hear is one of their dreams

Seeing the still before pressing play I was very apprehensive to watch this thinking it was some variant of "leave brittany alone" or something.
This video actually managed to make me tear up.
WTF, that doesn't happen.

Q: (Of course the MOST popular) "How do you know how to talk?"
A: I'd like to start off by pointing out that people who are hard of hearing or deaf do not have a lower IQs. I sometimes feel like the mean people posting comments actually think this...... Anyway, everyone is different. Everyone heals differently, everyone learns differently, and everyone excels at different things. I personally have always LOVED to read and write. English and Grammar have always been something I have enjoyed. I also enjoy talking! (Big shocker to those who know me huh? NOT! Lol.) I have worked very hard to overcome and to speak well. I went to deaf ed school when I was very young, then on to public school where I took speech classes and therapy. I don't think people realize how intently I read lips. When you read lips, you are studying how people move their mouths, where they place their tongue (and for those of you with tongue rings, yes, you trip me up) and their teeth. It's a skill I have had 29 years to hone. People with accents are hard to read, they move their mouths a different way then us Americans do. People with facial hair throw me off constantly. There are even those who don't move their mouths when they speak (Yes, that can actually happen!) Then you have the ones who mumble or speak quietly. I absolutely cannot talk to anyone under the influence of drugs..............those people's mouths move all sorts of wacky! Lol. When I was younger I got made fun of quite a bit for the way I talked. I said certain words funny, and I'm still told I say certain words funny. Guess what though? It's me. It's a part of who I am.

its sad that science and medicine are used to kill us rather then uplift and heal
The world could be full of wonderful stories like this one.

Now she needs to put that hearing to work
Romans 10:17 So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.

Does hearing the word of God require functional ears?
I'm gonna go with "not likely".
