A lot of that positivity is a result is sharing my story on noisysilence.ie, being lucky to be able to help others in a similar situation & advocating for better #accessibility for people with hearing loss, eg the #HelpUsHear campaign to make gigs more accessible (thank you @cmatbaby.bsky.social 🙌)

‼️YOUR REGULAR SUDDEN HEARING LOSS REMINDER‼️ 3 years ago today, I woke up with zero hearing in my left ear. I was one of the 1000 people a year in Ireland who develop sudden hearing loss. (~70,000 in the US)

Early flight to Berlin. En route to Charité for a Cochlear Implant mapping/tune up. 🤓🦻 Two years since the surgery that changed my life in so many ways. People who need & want a #CochlearImplant should be able to access them through their public health system (bilaterally if needed). noisysilence.ie
