Yupp I was born deaf without knowing why, but later more researching about my ears, they discovered that some parts of my ears do not have nerves so I am not sensitive to any of the sounds or any contact with the sounds due to my nerve issues unless the sound are loud enough, but still have to be close like 1 inch to my ears to actually hurt my ears, they think it was probably the reason why I was deaf. Also I am the only one who are the deaf in my family except for my grandpa recently having the hearing loss, but he just getting old so.

Also I was used to wear the hearing aids, but I can never understand the HA, it sounds like ant race on the television. Later when I was 19 years old, I decide to give the cochlear implant a try, but still not really work for me due to headaches. I guess I am too pro-found deaf, but good thing is that I am definitely proud of being deaf!
