Yeah, I inherited it from my Mum, which caused tumours on the hearing nerves :| but she was only diagnosed when I was 11, so I have had this condition all my life, but only became deaf very recently.
hey also there is luciadisturbed. she seems cool. well i haven't talk to her on here yet, but she has magenta streaks in her hair so she must be cool right? i think she is a teenager or like 20's-ish.
don't know how often you check your threads, but thought i would leave a post anyway. oh an luciadisturbed is in my friends list on my page.
