I am going slightly deaf in my right ear. It's tinnitus... something like that.

I am tone deaf.

I'm half deaf. I have nerve damage and a constant ringing in both of my ears, and there are certain times and conditions when I can hardly hear at all.

I'm not a deaf musician. I'm a musician who happens to be deaf.

I have a pretty good ear.

My brother was listening to his transistor radio. He kept switching the earpiece from one ear to the other, which I thought was his idea of a joke. 'You can't do that,' I said. 'You can only hear out of one ear.' 'No, I can hear out of both,' he answered. And that was how I discovered I was deaf in my right ear.

Am I complaining about my deafness? No, I am not.

I actually think the deafness makes you see clearer. If you can't hear, you somehow see.

I was born deaf. Sound never existed in my life, and this is completely normal to me.
