One of my ears suddenly lost most of its hearing one day. As a musician, this scared me. I was scared i would forever be half deaf, or one day fully deaf. I was lucky enough the it was just a bunch of wax…but within that 2 weeks of not being able to fully hear clearly was heartbreaking. I realized you can really take things for granted..

I just turn my face on the pillow and it's gone :D But holy shit, it must be a realy extreme cool world you are living in. You can locate sounds from where it's coming from, without turning your head to it.

Caro H if we`d be amazed everyday about every thing, nothing would get done. I took LSD last week for the first time... I know that doesn`t sound, like it is relevant to the story, but do remember, that LSD allows you to experience the world same way, as 3- 4 years old. When we are at this age, we don`t have fully developed structures in our brain, hence stuff, that is trash to us today, was a treasure back then. We all know what water is, ain`t we? We all know what fog is. But take LSD, go and watch at night, as river slowly pass you by, in a gentle flicker of electric light- lamp on the other side, while vapour forms fantastic shapes just above the water surface... Go into the fields, in thick fog, and watch, how everything around disappears, and there is only star- filled sky above you, that is slowly disappearing in the fog, so then you don`t know, where starts the earth and where skies end. If i was in that state constantly- nothing would get done- i`d be too amazed with the world. How come i have so many scars on my body, yet everything works fine? How many things have to work together, for me to reach and touch, and feel? Here we are, separated by great distance, yet you can read my thoughts... World is so complicated, that we should go "woah" all the time, amazed, that anything works at all. But if we did, nothing would work in the end...
My ear doctor in Newport Beach, Dr John House, invented the cochlear implant. He was the kindest, most humble doctor I’ve ever met. I went to him for a minor ear problem, but I knew who he was. He unselfishly changed so many lives. Dr. House was a prince among men and a true hero.

I will always treasure the ride home from Duke, the day they activated my wife's implant. All the way home she complained I was yelling at her, why were the tires so loud, what was wrong with the car making all those noises...things she had never heard before or as clear. When we got home and I moved her to the power chair, a mockingbird began to sing in the Bartlett Pear by the driveway. She sat there for 15 minutes with such a look of wonder on her face, at the sound she had never been able to hear in her prior 50 years of life. The photo I took of her that day listening to a bird sing for the first time is one of my favorites.
The sound of birds singing, a wonder to behold, Thankyou for relating this story, brings joy to my heart that is sorely needed in these days of one 1/2 the country opposes the other. God bless always ( please, not trying to start another war of words here.) Like to hear another story of a sound she heard for the first time..❤️🙏👉🇺🇸

It's like discovering life all over again. Imagine for the first time hearing music, or birds, or the wind blowing through trees. I would be in tears constantly. This is amazing.
Implants are not yet good enough to allow recipients to tell one note from another unless they are separated by more than an octave, so melodies will not be recognizable or learnable, but she will certainly be able to hear rhythm.
Me too. I just turned 54 and a few months ago and I nearly lost the sight in one eye. It hit me like a train and I have EVERY sympathy for those not as fortunate as me.
it’s a wonderful feeling being able to hear properly, I only just got hearing aids after being partially deaf all my life, I’m 61 and they only just found out after a hearing test that I could only hear bass sound, it’s absolutely fantastic to be able to hear all sounds instead of just muffles, I’ve read lips all my life not knowing I was mostly deaf and you cannot believe how happy I am being able to hear, I’m so happy this girl can now hear I know that wonderful feeling she has.

I’ve never been cruel to anyone who was impaired in any way. Never even occurred to me to be. Rather, my natural impulse always is to be extra kind to them. Always.

I was born with normal hearing but have a hereditary disease that caused me to slowly go deaf. Six years ago I had an implant fitted and the world is a very different place. Because it is not possible to sleep with the implant on every morning I have the same wonderful experience of suddenly been able to hear again once I attach the processor.
@@godmano9011 Yeah I'm one of those people who hears all the white noise, like the old tv tube oscillators rooms away. Had a few of those pesky little black crickets. You ain't findin' them either, no matter how much you look.
@Blank I stopped been able to really hear music from round about 1990. What I could 'listen' to from before then was mainly through memory. When I had my implant fitted I was told it was unlikely I would be able to hear music clearly if at all. When I got home on the day of my activation I decided to try and listen to Albatross by Fleetwood Mac and it was really clear. I'm not ashamed to admit tears flooded from my eyes. Since then as my brain has learnt to interpret the sounds again I have reached the stage that when I listen to classical music I can now pick out the individual instruments in the orchestra. I now have twenty five years of music to catch up with.

It seems that the only thing left in life that brings me any happiness is watching other people experience a moment of pure joy. This video certainly did the trick.

Wait'll she hears music for the first time. She would've already been exposed to it through vibrations but the high frequency parts I'll bet rocked her world.
My deaf friend heard for the first time 4 years ago and he wanted to listen to music for the first time with me. I was so excited for him! He told me to choose a song and I chose The Nights by Avicii. It has been his favourite song ever since😊
Well, hello there, fellow human! bro good choice of music. some dumbass would have probably made him listen to 6ix9ine or some shit as his first song 🤦♂️

@@vortex_1336 I grew up about half a mile from a deaf neighbor in his mid 70's. He'd been deaf since a teenager (baseball accident of some sort). I would mow his lawn and do other odd chores for cash. He was very good at lipreading and could speak pretty clearly, although still had an impediment due to not being able to hear himself speak. I remember he said that there was a surgery/procedure that existed that could restore his hearing, but he didn't want it. He was so used to being deaf that he didn't want to have to deal with the potential overwhelming experience of hearing again. His wife was dead already, and all he really wanted to do was just take care of his cattle farm in peace. He had a lot of money and could have afforded it, but he was just comfortable the way he was. He died a few years back.
I was paralyzed for 2 weeks after a face surgery. My dad carried me to the restroom. And spong bathed me. I said i would never complain about being tired from walking. I guess one thing has been true all along you don't really know what you have until it's gone

Man, Seeing her get all emotional and fiddling with her neckless is what i see my kids do. This is beautiful. I wish her the best in her new world of sound.
"Vibrations" is how she described it. Which is, well, technically what it is :p Vibrations through the air that you feel in your inner ear, which your brain has learned about. Probably not the same thing we'd hear, at all, in the least bit, as our brain has formed pathways to understand that. Oh you also see upside down with your eyes :p People who are hard of hearing, but not deaf, they might not even know it. Deaf people certainly do, can tell that in infants pretty fast. Like a new sense.... Imagine you could detect the heat of anything (infrared light) within a 100 foot radius (like even behind you). (Or if all other humans could, and laughed at you for touching the stove, that was hot, but visually black. When it gets to higher temps, well, it'll come into human visual light depending on the element heated :D)
Everything isn't vibration. Specifically, 'sound' is vibrations through air. (Or other material). That a human or some animal can hear. Even in space, someone can hear you scream. (Well, just yourself, probably hear some grunts or maybe a heartbeat. As that'd propagate through your blood to your ears. You'd probably be more worried with more immediate concerns, than what it sounds like though, like explosive lung discharge, water boiling on your tongue and eyes -- Don't worry, it won't be hot, just boiling :) It's energy, though, sure. :p A specific kind that a specific organ can detect. I think it's pretty different, than wearing a geiger counter, or infrared goggles. As an augment to senses to you already possess. (Or didn't)
Yes that is what I meant I should have worded it better lol. It is way to early in the morning for me to write anything overly academic but I was more getting at that all forms of energy stem from or purely are a form of vibration in the transmitting and/or receiving of it. That is why certain Energy based weapons can really fuck humans up, Sound in particular has been used many times for many morbid and ingenious purposes.
Seeing these videos melts me,i was blessed like normal person,but still think i am misarable, seeing these people and their sufferings really make my problem nothing compared to them.
"What's it sound like??" I don't even know how she could describe hearing something for the first time. It's impossible to even imagine what that experience is like.
I can't answer for her but I had kind of the same situation with my right ear. My left ear's perfect but the first time I heard (a little bit, it's still mostly deaf) with my right ear was surreal, even though I'd heard all my life, coming from the right ear it was indistinguishable. It was almost like crackling tv static, like I physically felt it all the way in my skull. It was so foreign, like using something that had never been used before. I recognized the audio but it sounded very very distorted like one of those demonic voice filters they use in horror movies. It sounds scary but it was just wild
I remember my daughter Amy heard a bird singing for the first time when her hearing aids and tubes were perfectly set, God thank you, i had to tell her and show her the bird, makes me cry everytime i think of it, In memory of Amy Gowan 1985 -2008. 🌻💔🌻💔🌻

I took LSD last week for the first time... I know that doesn`t sound, like it is relevant to the story, but do remember, that LSD allows you to experience the world same way, as 3- 4 years old. When we are at this age, we don`t have fully developed structures in our brain, hence stuff, that is trash to us today, was a treasure back then. We all know what water is, ain`t we? We all know what fog is. But take LSD, go and watch at night, as river slowly pass you by, in a gentle flicker of electric light- lamp on the other side, while vapour forms fantastic shapes just above the water surface... Go into the fields, in thick fog, and watch, how everything around disappears, and there is only star- filled sky above you, that is slowly disappearing in the fog, so then you don`t know, where starts the earth and where skies end.
If i was in that state constantly- nothing would get done- i`d be too amazed with the world. How come i have so many scars on my body, yet everything works fine? How many things have to work together, for me to reach and touch, and feel? Here we are, separated by great distance, yet you can read my thoughts...
World is so complicated, that we should go "woah" all the time, amazed, that anything works at all. But if we did, nothing would work in the end...

My ear doctor in Newport Beach, Dr John House, invented the cochlear implant. He was the kindest, most humble doctor I’ve ever met.
I went to him for a minor ear problem, but I knew who he was. He unselfishly changed so many lives.
Dr. House was a prince among men and a true hero.

Cool story bro
Dont tase me bro
André Djourno and Charles Eyriès invented the original cochlear implant in 1957, Dr House improved upon the design in 1961
I had LASIK eye surgery 2 years ago. Now, I have 100 % vision. I am 29 years old. Since I was 7 years old , I had very poor eyesight. I could not even see my own hands properly. Now, I have 100% vision. Words are not enough to describe the happiness I have within.

I’m almost fully convinced that there is an organized group of people that go around hitting dislike on every video they possibly can.
I was convinced also when I watched the video of a baby hearing her mom's voice for the first time and getting emotional. 26k dislikes.....
Folks. People pay for likes. The 'like spammers' hide what they are doing by sprinkling dislikes on random videos.
Just like some people get a sense back after years, some lose something!
Maybe. Since the title says she's hearing for the first time, the fact that she's talking pisses people off if they don't know that it can be learned. Though I read it is extremely difficult for people who never heard anything. Then there's people like me who thumb it down when I see people bitching in the comments about the thumbs down.

I will always treasure the ride home from Duke, the day they activated my wife's implant. All the way home she complained I was yelling at her, why were the tires so loud, what was wrong with the car making all those noises...things she had never heard before or as clear. When we got home and I moved her to the power chair, a mockingbird began to sing in the Bartlett Pear by the driveway. She sat there for 15 minutes with such a look of wonder on her face, at the sound she had never been able to hear in her prior 50 years of life. The photo I took of her that day listening to a bird sing for the first time is one of my favorites.
That’s beautiful.

@Blank I stopped been able to really hear music from round about 1990. What I could 'listen' to from before then was mainly through memory. When I had my implant fitted I was told it was unlikely I would be able to hear music clearly if at all. When I got home on the day of my activation I decided to try and listen to Albatross by Fleetwood Mac and it was really clear. I'm not ashamed to admit tears flooded from my eyes. Since then as my brain has learnt to interpret the sounds again I have reached the stage that when I listen to classical music I can now pick out the individual instruments in the orchestra. I now have twenty five years of music to catch up with.

I remember he said that there was a surgery/procedure that existed that could restore his hearing, but he didn't want it. He was so used to being deaf that he didn't want to have to deal with the potential overwhelming experience of hearing again. His wife was dead already, and all he really wanted to do was just take care of his cattle farm in peace. He had a lot of money and could have afforded it, but he was just comfortable the way he was. He died a few years back.
I would love to see her reaction to hearing music. Imagine being able to hear Mozart, miles davis, Elvis, the Beatles... for the first time!
I was just thinking the same thing, music is the most amazing thing in life. I would just cry at every song I would hear if I would be her.
I would want the first music she hears to be me playing guitar, since she’s never heard music before she might think I’m good!
shes 28, not 100!

beautiful video:) God Bless that young lady.
Thank you so much for watching and be sure to see the updated video. ua-cam.com/video/wWhdgPEMmaY/v-deo.html
I was paralyzed for 2 weeks after a face surgery.
My dad carried me to the restroom.
And spong bathed me.
I said i would never complain about being tired from walking.
I guess one thing has been true all along you don't really know what you have until it's gone
Wow. So true.
I'm a dad and don't know how this guy manages to stay that calm when he sees her daughter crying and hearing for the first time....

Thanks
This video itself had me crying. I have two daughters, there is no way I would have been able not to sob like a baby.
@@bletabirds9035 go fuck yourself and take your spammy bullshit with you.
Oswald Cobblespot, Amen brother! I'm sitting here crying like a baby over a stranger on UA-cam. I'd be a hot mess if It was my child.
Yeah...I'm tearing up just thinking about it.
Man, Seeing her get all emotional and fiddling with her neckless is what i see my kids do. This is beautiful. I wish her the best in her new world of sound.
Thank you so much for watching Amy. Be sure to watch my new video up Amy ua-cam.com/video/wWhdgPEMmaY/v-deo.html
Bless her little heart, can you imagine how that moment must feel to her.

I find it really interesting how her interpretation of "Hearing" is "Feeling".
well technically it is feeling air vibrations....through your ear.....
"Vibrations" is how she described it. Which is, well, technically what it is :p Vibrations through the air that you feel in your inner ear, which your brain has learned about. Probably not the same thing we'd hear, at all, in the least bit, as our brain has formed pathways to understand that. Oh you also see upside down with your eyes :p People who are hard of hearing, but not deaf, they might not even know it. Deaf people certainly do, can tell that in infants pretty fast.
Like a new sense.... Imagine you could detect the heat of anything (infrared light) within a 100 foot radius (like even behind you). (Or if all other humans could, and laughed at you for touching the stove, that was hot, but visually black. When it gets to higher temps, well, it'll come into human visual light depending on the element heated :D)
Diax1324 Well it is all vibration. Everything is energy.
Everything isn't vibration.
Specifically, 'sound' is vibrations through air. (Or other material). That a human or some animal can hear.
Even in space, someone can hear you scream. (Well, just yourself, probably hear some grunts or maybe a heartbeat. As that'd propagate through your blood to your ears. You'd probably be more worried with more immediate concerns, than what it sounds like though, like explosive lung discharge, water boiling on your tongue and eyes -- Don't worry, it won't be hot, just boiling :) It's energy, though, sure. :p A specific kind that a specific organ can detect.
I think it's pretty different, than wearing a geiger counter, or infrared goggles. As an augment to senses to you already possess. (Or didn't)
Yes that is what I meant I should have worded it better lol. It is way to early in the morning for me to write anything overly academic but I was more getting at that all forms of energy stem from or purely are a form of vibration in the transmitting and/or receiving of it. That is why certain Energy based weapons can really fuck humans up, Sound in particular has been used many times for many morbid and ingenious purposes.
I cried. this is magical to watch! I can't imagine how Amy and her family felt :')
You didnt fuckin cry lmao
Exactly what I said. Magical moment.
As a father to a new daughter, I loved when her dad talked to her. She immediately asked for more volume then. Beautiful
Yeah that was a beautiful moment. I'm a dad too so I can imagine how happy he must have felt.
Seeing these videos melts me,i was blessed like normal person,but still think i am misarable, seeing these people and their sufferings really make my problem nothing compared to them.
"What's it sound like??"
I don't even know how she could describe hearing something for the first time. It's impossible to even imagine what that experience is like.
It could be scary. It could sound too loud. It could be like vibrations, like she said..
They could have played the sound of nails on a chalkboard and told her it was a beautiful sound and she would have believed it lol.
I can't answer for her but I had kind of the same situation with my right ear. My left ear's perfect but the first time I heard (a little bit, it's still mostly deaf) with my right ear was surreal, even though I'd heard all my life, coming from the right ear it was indistinguishable. It was almost like crackling tv static, like I physically felt it all the way in my skull. It was so foreign, like using something that had never been used before. I recognized the audio but it sounded very very distorted like one of those demonic voice filters they use in horror movies. It sounds scary but it was just wild
I suppose the best description would be like feeling vibrations in your ears/head?
She can hear the voice of her son. So moving
Then after hearing him throw a screaming fit when he doesn't get what he wants she's gonna wish she was deaf again. lol
I remember my daughter Amy heard a bird singing for the first time when her hearing aids and tubes were perfectly set, God thank you, i had to tell her and show her the bird, makes me cry everytime i think of it, In memory of Amy Gowan 1985 -2008. 🌻💔🌻💔🌻
oh my god, I was about to make a lame joke but ended up crying by the end of your post. So, so sorry for your loss.
may she rest in peace
Sorry to hear that.
Lord does work in mysterious ways. He had his reason for taking her.
We can't see the big picture now, but we will.
😪
i’m sorry. 😔🙏🏼
I'm 79 years old and watched this and cried like a baby...I'm so happy for her...May God Bless her ❤ heart...
It’s 4am and I’m crying my eyes out. I’m so happy for her and her family.
