It was
BecLak who told me about this inspiring person,
Cyril Axelrod. Cyril was born deaf in a Jewish family. He later became a Roman Catholic priest and worked with the deaf communities in South Africa. As he got older he began to lose his sight as a result of Usher Syndrome. Cyril continues to work, speaking around the globe. He can communicate in 15 languages. He was the first Deafblind RC priest in the world.
