I am excited to announce that I will be signing copies of my new book, How I Hear: Confessions of a Lip Reading Mom, on July 11 from 11AM-1:30PM at the Olathe Community Center, 1205 E Kansas City Road, Olathe, Kansas.
I’ll be joining several other local authors who also will be signing their books. Join us for books, crafts, and treats. I hope to see you there!
A special thank you to event organizer, author RJ Thesman.
In How I Hear: Confessions of a Lip Reading Mom, I share about the roller coaster ride of living with progressive hearing loss, which was diagnosed two months after the birth of my first child. I was 27. Three healthy kids later, my hearing loss has accelerated. Sounds I once took for granted – the doorbell, smoke alarms, baby cries – are now quiet. In the midst of imminent and unexplained deafness, I describe my struggles and eventual discovery of grit and grace.
