OverviewThe inspiring and humorous story of living the challenge of a hearing impairment. The journey takes the reader through Sandra's approach to managing her hearing impairment through challenges of school days, dating, marriage, motherhood, grandmother hood, divorce, career, professional organizational involvement, retirement, and then a second life cycle... career, dating, marriage and retirement again...maybe! One thing Sandra stresses is her belief in CAN DO power! She believes her hearing impairment is not going to be a challenge; it's going to be an opportunity to try to do things differently. Sandra says she doesn't have a disability she has a different ability. She does, as readers of this book have said, bring tears and laughter to the reader while sharing her story.
