Raising My Son Who Became Deaf

Sylvia and Louisa discussed the importance of accessibility for
the deaf community, with Louisa sharing her personal experiences
as a black parent of her son who became deaf following
illness.  She shares some of the challenges she faced in
navigating the healthcare system. They also discussed her son's
educational journey and his later career prospects. 
 Louisa's son Ashton is an inspiring story, as he has not
let his hearing impairment hold him back, and has received a
tremendous amount in his life.  The conversation also
touched on the challenges of communication with the deaf
community, the importance of parental research and advocacy, and
the need to better represent the disabled community in various
fields.
