Meet Ashley.
Trigger/Content Notice: Mentions of suicidal ideation.
Hi! I love to dance, be with amazing people & educating silly hearing people by running them over if they ask “do Deaf people drive?”
So they gave me my first pair of hearing aids when I was about 7-8 months old (I think, I could be wrong on that, but I was definitely still a baby). They were crying. I was crying—not liking how things are. Then when they turned on the hearing aids, I stopped crying. I heard my parents say “I love you” for the first time and looked at them.
